Visit to Rocky Norton’s Studio and Gallery

Rocky Norton is an Albuquerque based artist who has opened his own studio/gallery in Albuquerque’s historic Old Town district. Besides his artistic interest Rocky is a designer, furniture maker, photographer, house builder, stone mason, landscaper, skateboarder, and full-time dad. He is a true original and a master at most everything he attempts. He has only been a painter for a relatively short period of time but has quickly become an incredible talent whose works never seem to disappoint. He has quickly moved from expressive realism to abstract field painting and traditional still life. Rocky is a man of many talents and ideas. This will be a special treat to hear from Rocky about his work and his new venture, and where he seems headed next.
