    McNamara is a native of New York City and since her move to Sedona, has flourished as an artist and outdoor enthusiast. Her hikes lead to some of the country’s most remote canyons and wilderness areas. McNamara returns to the studio filled with nature and visions of boundless scenery, ready to explore space and form on canvas by intertwining gestural marks and drawings with thick paint layers and subtle transparencies. She states, “My compositions draw inspiration from the idea that everything in nature is connected to everything else.”

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone.

Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
