Linda Dufurrena  
dufurrena photo

Linda Dufurrena photographs all aspects of life in her desert corner of Nevada. She finds her subject matter in the landscape, and in the ever-changing patterns of the desert atmosphere. She photographs the creatures who inhabit the wild spaces, and the men and women who live and work there. Her vision of the world is translated into photographic image in her workshop at the Dufurrena ranch northwest of Winnemucca, Nevada.

Dufurrena's work hangs in the Nevada state Legislature, hotels such as John Ascuaga's Nugget and the Carson Valley Inn (more than 200 photos) and professional buildings in the Truckee Meadows, as well as numerous private collections
