Peggy Zuris
Peggy Zuris reflects colorful images of the southwest. From early childhood, she began drawing and creating studies reflecting images of her world. Growing up in Albuquerque, she enjoyed the natural beauty of the landscape and traveled into the deserts and mountains absorbing the drama of the impressive forms, hues and textures.
After attending New Mexico Highlands University, she submitted her portfolio for a juried selection process and was accepted to the Kansas City Art Institute, Otis/Parson in Los Angeles and Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. Following her training, she returned to New Mexico where she maintains an active studio.
Peggy has been described as a colorist with a natural understanding and naiveté, which transcends the creative experience and allows the successful abstraction of her subjects.

Wesley Pulkka, art critic with the Albuquerque Journal says, Her ruddy oils are lavished with juicy layers of paint. Mountains and valleys, all slightly askew, prance across the canvas. Her work has life and singular vision.
