Verónica Paz Love 

Boulder based visual artist, Verónica Love, has been captivated by both the profound suffering and perpetual beauty of human beings. 

 

For over a decade she has explored how oil painting, ink, graphite and mixed media can express the range of human experience and ignite the human heart.

 

Love was born in 1976 in Buenos Aires, Argentina to Chilean parents who were refugees that escaped the military coup d’tat in Chile. When she was one and a half, her family fled Argentina’s dictatorship and landed in California in 1978. 

 

These early life experiences have fueled Love’s curiosity about how to see beyond our usual confines and widen our perspectives and hearts. 

 

She approaches art as a living inquiry and continuous investigation. For Love, creating is a way of questioning assumptions, deconstructing, reconstructing and inventing. Through artistic production there is deep contact with the malleability and temporal nature of reality.  

  

Love finds a profound peace in the  immersive wordless space of making. Her process is about awakening to the intensification of the sensorial experience itself where the creation process slows down and enables the soul to relish the moment. Reveling in spacious awareness and playing in the land of line, color, and mark-making, becomes an intimate encounter with being alive. 

 

Her ongoing curiosity and attentive exploration influences her work, both as the CEO of The Newfield Network, an organization dedicated to educating people on how to “human better”, and as a visual creator.

 

Love’s paintings have been exhibited at the Arvada Center, Longmont Firehouse, The Dairy Arts Center, and Core Space. In 2024 she was the recipient of the Artistic Achievement award at the Louisville Art Association’s National Fine Art Show.
