About the Artists
David Trujillo
With my art, I want to spark aesthetic distance and emotion. I'm a native Santa Fean and have been nurtured by the wonderful art here. I've been a client at Life Link for over a decade. I came back to my art and it has saved my life. Unhoused Art came to the Life Link clubhouse after COVID mid-2024 and continues working with the clubhouse. I remained involved with the program and showed my work in its exhibit at the Midtown campus. An art critic described my art as enigmatic. I consider myself an Outsider artist. Doing art is a spiritual endeavor.
Gloria Mandala
In life you should celebrate; face whatever obstacles come your way and to have the courage to move forward. I began by doing sketches as a small child around the age of 6, I guess. I have never had formal training. I just continued with the idea of improving my technique ... and I have always kept the idea of improvement in mind even now. I got involved with Unhoused Art through the Life Link.
Jeanelle Moore
My artistic journey began in 2012 when I joined the Inside Out Art Group through the Life Link in Santa Fe, New Mexico. As a self-taught artist, I initially began painting realistically in oils before expanding my skills into acrylics through my work with the group. In 2018, I developed my own signature style built around a process of image over image and color over color. Through these layered visual textures, my work reflects transformation and personal resilience, anchoring a deep sense of recovery and growth within vibrant, intuitive art.
