About the Artist:
Virginia Roach, an accomplished painter and cherished member of the Las Cruces, New Mexico, art community, was known for her vibrant and captivating representations of the diverse landscapes and cultures she encountered throughout her life. Born in Las Cruces on September 30, 1928, Virginia's artistic journey was deeply influenced by her experiences as an Army wife, which took her from the historical depths of Berlin, Germany, to the colorful vibrancy of Caracas, Venezuela. This rich tapestry of experiences imbued her work with a unique perspective, allowing her to capture the essence of each place's beauty and spirit. Following her husband Paul's retirement, Virginia dedicated herself fully to her art, opening the Pink Adobe Gallery in Hillsboro, New Mexico, where she continued to explore and share her passion for painting.
Virginia's artwork, celebrated for its ability to bring joy and beauty into the lives of those who viewed it, was featured in numerous juried shows and earned her many accolades. Her paintings, represented by the Glenn Cutter Gallery, have found homes across the globe, testament to her skill and the universal appeal of her work. Beyond her achievements in the art world, Virginia was also known for her love of gardening and animals, passions that she shared with her family and which often found their way into her art. Remembered for her generosity, kindness, and the indelible mark she left on the art community, Virginia Roach's legacy lives on through her breathtaking paintings and the memories she created with those who knew her.
