In her newest solo exhibition and sale, Repose, local artist and Trailside Impressionist Nina C. Walker invites you to find peacefulness and tranquility in her paintings.
Native to the Southwest, Nina C. Walker brings a progressive, modern style to Classical Impressionism. Walker applies the traditional philosophy and techniques of Impressionism to her work and re-imagines it for a modern audience, reflecting spirituality and looseness of style with realistic elements. Speaking about Repose, Walker strives to “evoke a feeling which touches the soul and connects our lives.” She hopes to find connection with her viewers, remarking that “to feel the connection is to find the freshness and sparkle of these transitions.”
All are welcome to celebrate at the Opening Reception on Saturday, May 2, 2026 from 1-4 pm. Walker will be giving opening remarks at 2:30 pm. Repose will be on view from May 2 through May 23, 2026. We can’t wait to see everyone there!
The International Museum of Art is honored to showcase Walker and her talents to our community again. She has previously exhibited at the IMoA, sharing her work in annual shows like the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl and in her 2024 solo exhibition, Evolution. She is a respected teacher, mentor, and student of progressive Impressionism and her works are held in collections across the United States. Walker has won many awards for her work across the nation, including the Juror’s Choice Award at the 39th National Exhibit of Women Artists of the West in Denver, Colorado. In addition to actively showing and participating in the art community, Walker teaches oil painting classes to future up-and-coming artists in El Paso, Texas.
The International Museum of Art is dedicated to making art accessible to all, offering free admission, exhibitions of local artists, and a rich collection of regional and international artifacts.
