Spellbound (Hardback)

Fatima Ronquillo is the hottest young artist coming out of the influential Santa Fe, New Mexico, art scene. This is the first book of her work. Ronquillo is self-taught but paints with the hand of an Old Master and bases her paintings on classic themes and symbols from Europe, Mexico and the Southwestern United States, and from her native Philippines. Collectors (she sells out every show despite being very prolific) admire not only her painterly technique but also the sly wit and humour in her work. Her work has been featured recently in Red Milk and The Cut magazines as well as in an exclusive magazine/catalogue produced by Gucci. Introduction by John O'Hern, the Santa Fe columnist and critic of American Art Collector magazine.
