Living on the edge of the Colorado National Monument, Diana Woods creates paintings and sculpture inspired by wild horse herds, high deserts, family storytelling and a deep spiritual connection to the natural world. We visited Diana at her studio, though much of our time was spent hiking the trails that inspire the artist. In this video, she reflects on how painting becomes a form of meditation, how her grandfather’s Montana ranch stories continue to shape her work, and how themes of resilience, wonder, and interconnectedness emerge through luminous color, layered surfaces, and dreamlike imagery. Join us inside Diana’s creative process and explore the stories that animate her work, and be the first to see her new work!
