I hope you all had a chance to experience some of the great events that took place in Corrales over the last six weeks. Corrales MainStreet was one of the sponsors of the Corrales Art Studio Tour. What a great selection of art and media! I visited a number of the studios and was so impressed with the talent we have here in Corrales. And speaking of talent – I really admire all those people whose yard’s are their canvass. Our Corrales Garden Tour highlights some of the best in the Village. The tour certainly dispels the notion that New Mexico is a land of cactus and tumbleweed! Thanks to all of the Garden Tour volunteers who worked so diligently to bring us this annual event. In early May Corrales MainStreet was pleased to host a ribbon cutting to celebrate the relocation of one of our newest galleries – Gathering Artists. Owned by Sara &KDGZLFNLWLVORFDWHGRQ&RUUDOHV5RDGGLUHFWO\DFURVVIURPWKH¿UHVWDWLRQ7KH gallery features works by a number of local artists. There is a great selection of artwork to hang on the wall or adorn your body. Be sure to stop in a see all that the gallery offers. Coming up in June, Corrales MainStreet will be holding its annual meeting. We will be electing new board members who have volunteered to give of their time and talents to keep the Corrales MainStreet organization moving forward. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank those members of the board who will be leaving us. Ally Cochran has spent six years on the board, most recently serving as Vice President. Cliff Spirock is also stepping down though he will continue to act as an indispensable memeber of our Pathways project team. Thanks to you both for all you have done. Watch your email for information about the annual meeting. Also coming up this summer – the annual Fourth of July festivities, a business fair and a MainStreet open house. And don’t forget our annual Starry Night Event. It will be held on September 7, 2013. Be sure to mark your calendars.. More information will be coming soon. Have a great summer! Mayor Gasteyer does the honors at the Gathering Artists ribbon cutting CORRALES MAINSTREET NEWS Condolences The Corrales Mainstreet board asks that you join us in extending condolences to the family of our Executive Director, Jim Covell. Jim lost his wife of 57 years, LaJuan, on May 15th. Connie Grindatto, the Corrales MainStreet Publicity Chairperson is their daughter. Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers.

She had painted throughout her life, but other pursuits had always taken precedence. Now she was stepping into new territory, and she was ready to take a more focused approach to her painting. As a girl Linda attended small Kansas schools that didn’t offer art classes, but her mother was artistic and she encouraged her. Linda graduated from Emporia State Teacher’s College with a B.S. in Elementary Education. She married Harold Dillenback and went with him to Germany where he served in the U.S. Army.

But I do love it here. Every day I see amazing rocks and cactus and dramatic skies. I love the sudden cloudbursts and rainbows, though we haven’t seen much rain lately.” Linda looks at New Mexico with fresh eyes and she says Corrales inspires her art. “There is such a unique feeling here. I like the quiet where I can hear the quail, the Sandhill Cranes, and the chatter of Roadrunners.” She also loves the relaxed atmosphere of Corrales where she has found it easy to make new friends and get involved in the community. Early on she and Harold joined Compadres which has led them to many friends and volunteer opportunities. Linda is a docent for the Corrales Historical Society, and she volunteered to man a booth at the Corrales Art Studio Tour for several years before becoming one of the participating artists last year. ³7KLVDUHDLV¿OOHGZLWKSKHQRPHQDODUWLVWV´VKHVD\V³,GLGQ¶WUHDOL]HWKDWZKHQ ZHPRYHGKHUH,¿QGWKDWEHLQJSDUWRIDFRPPXQLW\RIDUWLVWVIHHGVP\RZQDUW,¶YH learned so much from the classes I take with Deborah Wilcox.

They had taken vacations out west to Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico, and Linda had been particularly drawn to the Southwest. A friend suggested that next time they were in Albuquerque, they should look at Corrales. They did, and though they liked Corrales, the Dillenbacks were not sure they wanted to call it home. It was so different from the life they had lived in the Chicago suburbs where they loved life near the water, and they had been co-owners of a boat on Lake Michigan. There was also the matter of leaving behind their support group of friends and family to live in a place that was so “out Her Majesty Catch of the Day Corrales MainStreet News • Summer 2013 • visitcorrales.com Page 5 Earth Beauty Photo by Linda Dillenback Photo by Linda Dillenback DEO\KHUV5HJDUGLQJVXEMHFWPDWWHUVKH¿QGVWKDWVKHLVGUDZQE\GHWDLOV6KHVHHV repetition and pattern in the way speckles on a cactus answer the pebbles on the ground where it grows. Similarly, she is drawn to the pattern of scales on an iguana or feathers on a bird. “I’m not inclined to paint landscapes,” Linda says. “I feel overwhelmed by wide vistas. I’m drawn to detail and a close-up view. I paint a cactus or part of a cactus rather than the wider landscape. Most of my paintings begin with a photo. I look at the photo and decide which elements I want to include and which I want to leave out. I crop and rearrange and experiment with color.” When asked about her goals for the future, Linda says, “I want my paintings to express more feeling. I want the viewer to think more about the subject than just to say, ‘Oh, that’s a cactus, or that’s an iguana.’ I liked learning to paint the scales on the iguana, but now I want to express something internal that goes beyond the scales. I want to convey my appreciation and reaction to what I am painting, both in color and in form. I want to show beauty that someone else might not see.” Linda says she’s moving toward more abstract realism. “I can never get away from realism,” she says. “It’s who I am.

There are not many places like Corrales where you Aspen & Elektra can walk out your gate and onto the network of trails where you can ride with your human partner for hours.

This June we launch a pilot program titled Second Sundays at Casa San Ysidro. Each Second Sunday program is built around a theme, includes informal tours of Casa’s historic rooms, and is held from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. Best of all these programs are free for everyone and we invite Corrales residents as our special guests on these fun afternoons. If you haven’t visited Casa recently, and even if you have, these programs are a great time to round up the family and stop by for something new. Here’s a short description of what’s in store. June 9; Meet two characters from New Mexico’s past; a cibolero, or Spanish buffalo hunter, presented by Manuel Lopez, and 19th century mountain man “Old Bill” Williams, portrayed by Larry Marken. Lopez and Marken are skilled living history presenters and are well versed in New Mexico’s frontier history. Visit with them informally and learn about their historical clothing and equipment. At 2:30 a 45 minute Chautauqua-style presentation by these frontiersmen begins. free of charge to schools and students, in 2014. In order to accomplish our goals we also need to expand our team of volunteer guides. Our multihour required training will be held in August. If you would like to learn more about this rewarding volunteer opportunity please contact me via phone (897-8828) or email ([email protected]) for more information and to receive a volunteer application.

A beautiful trail that is an easement on private land, it runs from the Corrales Rd. Acequia to Loma Larga. It is a project that Pet Mayors & their owners has been in the works for many years with the Village, the land owner Alana McGrattan, Andrew Burr and the Village Mercantile, along with the Corrales Horse and Mule People. I am looking forward to participating in a formal ribbon cutting and enjoying the new shady lane on the coming hot summer days. Since Corrales is The Horse Capital of New Mexico, it seems only appropriate that horses play a major role in the Annual Harvest Festival in October. Corrales Horse and Mule People (CHAMP) will join with Dan’s Boots and Saddles to present 2 days filled with events for every horse lover. It will be a weekend not to be missed for anyone wanting to know about horse ownership and equine activities and businesses centered in and out of the Village of Corrales. Saturday: 10 am- 4:30pm multiple presentations from all aspects of Village equine activity at Top Form Arena. Educational as well as entertaining. A virtual three ring circus with many presentations going on simultaneously. Horse packing, driving, grooming, ground play, jumping, saddle savvy, trail obstacles, dressage, blacksmithing, horseshoeing, horse ownership, horse rescue, mustang makeovers, therapeutic riding, veterinary medicine. See it all. As in the 0\\HDUDV3HW0D\RULVÀ\LQJE\DQGEHIRUHZHNQRZLWDQHZ3HW0D\RUHOHFtion will be underway.
