The Cover Artist
Rose B. Simpson
Rose B. Simpson was nurtured into art and permaculture through her dual families in Santa Clara Pueblo and Santa Fe. She has spent her 25 years of existence experimenting with life, including attending school at the University of New Mexico and the Institute of American Indian Arts (BFA, ‘07). She is currently a full-time artist, teacher, singer, dreamer, creator, and avid pursuer of consciousness. The Flowering Tree Permaculture Institute helped raise her so now she sits; pulling weeds, mud plastering, collecting seeds, dreaming big and really small, with the board of directors. She also collaborates with other young and boisterous artists on a warehouse art venue on the south side of town called Humble Space, where the band she sings with, The Wake Singers, plays on occasion, surrounded by
local and underground art. You can find her riding her bike (with no hands) on the back roads of Santa Fe or at

Dreaming New Mexico “Future” Map
Glen T. Strock
The Dreaming New Mexico “future” map of the Age of Renewables in New Mexico depicts a compelling vision of a clean energy future for the state. Along with the artist’s beautiful rendering of a positive future, an accompanying pamphlet goes into depth on various do-able energy “dreams.” These dynamic materials offer the start of a “greenprint” for how the Land of Enchantment can live up to its name. It’s up to us to realize the dreams together. The poster and pamphlet are available at www.bioneers.org.
Glen Strock has lived and produced artwork in NM since 1979. His imagery has appeared on numerous book covers, publications and murals focusing on the history and folklore of Mexico. Glen’s distinctive linear style generates from years of study steeped in the folk arts of Mexico and owes a stylistic debt to the woodcuts and steel engravings of Posada. He received a degree in Communication Arts from Virginia Commonwealth University and went on to study painting, printmaking and primitive ceramics at Instituto Allende and Bellas Artes in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico.
Glen lives in Santa Fe with his wife Alida and four children. Silkscreen and giclee prints of Glen’s paintings offer an affordable way to take home and enjoy his work. Glen may be contacted at 505-474-4468 or e-mail:
