This new body of paintings has come from an extended stay in the Mesilla Valley of southern New Mexico. Her morning walks take her through the pecan groves along levies that parallel the acequias (water ditches) where she could look out across vast open fields toward the Bishop’s Cap Mountains. The verdant landscape, the extensive swirls and brilliance of the sunlight, and the deep shadows made vivid impressions on Moeser, which subsequently fed the imagery captured here in her lush and extremely colourful paintings.
