About the Artists:
Liza Mills – Both rock climbing and art have been my passions for the past 30 years and the Shawangunks have been my home all that time. My goal is to create images of the iconic Shawangunks, and climbing areas that have touched my heart, that people who love the areas will recognize and connect with. All of these works are exceptional quality prints of my original drawings, on archival paper. If you are interested in original drawings, feel free to reach out to me on Etsy.
Nora Scarlett – Nora Scarlett discovered her passion for photography in high school when on a whim she enrolled in an introductory course. During much of her 45 year career as a professional photographer, she had a thriving commercial photography studio in New York City specializing in still-life.
After moving to the New Paltz area in 1998 her focus shifted from the studio to the vast outdoor world. An avid hiker and former rock climber, Nora can be found wandering the woods with a camera in her pack in the ongoing pursuit of creating her bold, elegant, and at times, quirky, images.
She is the author of Trunks of the Gunks and Ledge Lake Leaf Labyrinth both showcasing the Shawangunk Mountains with her distinctive vision.
She continues to love making photographs, working in her thoughtful and deliberate manner whether in the studio or in the woods.
