Dear Colleagues and Friends: Welcome to the 2014 New Mexico Association for Bilingual Education State Conference! ¡Bienvenidos! Our Conference theme, “Bilingual Education: Common to Our Core,” recognizes and honors all the work educators do in the teaching and learning process. During the conference, we encourage you to take the time to share, network and enrich your professional repertoire with best practices and resources. Especially during this time in our State’s education history, it is imperative that we stay strong and unified in our core philosophy regarding the power, dignity and worth of bilingualism and multiculturalism. This Conference program has topics that will inform, inspire and reinforce your beliefs that Bilingual Education is the best option for our New Mexico students! So, get ready for a full two days of keynote speakers and breakout sessions designed to meet your needs within multiple content strands from which you can choose. Breakout sessions will feature educators and instructional leaders sharing their knowledge in the areas of Dual Language Education, Spanish and Native American languages and culture, English as a Second Language, Best Practices and Administration. Throughout this conference, I ask you to stay engaged, keep us proactive and help us shape the future of Bilingual Education programs in the state. I also encourage you to invite your colleagues and friends to join our Association. My personal respect and thanks goes out to all of you, the NMABE Board, Executive Director, Associate Director, Legislators and Partners in Education for all your hard work on behalf of our students and families. Have a great conference! Sincerely, ¡Mil gracias! Dr. Gladys Herrera-Gurule, President New Mexico Association for Bilingual Education

Ya-Ta-Hey, my name is shawn Nelson, Turquoise Man. reading is a gift of knowledge we sometimes take for granted. i remember walking to school in the rain, snow, and windy days. My art was a gift from the creator whom i will treasure forever.
i was born and raised in east los Angeles, california to the age of 7. Being part of the Boarding schools gave me a different perspective of life and tradition, of the ways i learned from my grandparents. The new part of me became involved with art different from many media, working with pencil, watercolor and then oil. i realized when growing up there was a market for art and i had a vision of my future.
i believe my grandparents had a lot to do with the talented person i became. i am very grateful for knowing them, and i would like to pass on my talent to the world. i started working with natural sand and, being an artist, i wondered, “when will i be recognized?” i never gave up remembering what my grandparents taught me.
Today, i have completed The Last Supper in sand, and now i know i have accomplished my goals. That’s how i came up with the concept for the sand painting of a vision of myself reading a book.

Allow me to introduce myself. Shawn
Nelson is my birth name and my native name is “Turquoise Man. For 50 years, I was known as “Turquoise Boy,” but when I turned 50, it was time to manifest myself as “Turquoise Man.”
,µP�1DYDMR�'LQp��ERUQ�
on Feb. 15, 1958 in los
Angeles. My family and i
moved out of state when i
was 7 years old, and i lived
mainly in the Four corners
“Arizona, colorado, New
Mexico and utah.” My
traditional teachings began
to evolve during that period
of time. i was very fortunate
to learn from my paternal
grandparents who taught

cooks.” My grandparents Albert and Gloria Nelson lived in the back mountains of wide ruins, Arizona.
As i grew older, i realized what great memories i will always have of them.
i began to create my art when i was 9 years
old, by pencil drawing and using watercolors at
night with my kerosene lamp, living on the ranch
with my family in Arizona and using a heavy iron
made of steel to design my images on sand. in my
early twenties, i spent many moons practicing and
perfecting my artistic skills, using acrylic, airbrush
and oil paint. My sand Art painting began when
i was introduced to the traditional ceremonial
sand paintings on the reservations of the Navajo
1DWLRQ��'XULQJ�P\�PLG�WZHQWLHV��,�EHJDQ�WR�FUHDWH�
a variety of images with natural sand that comes
mainly from the Four corners. in my life as young
Navajo Man, i began to understand my visions
and to be able to interpret them through my art
with a great sense of respect, by participating at
art events, exhibits at public museums, and by
doing demonstrations at resorts in Arizona and
california.
it became clear to me that i had perfected my
VDQG�SDLQWLQJV�LQWR�¾QH�VDQG�DUW�SDLQWLQJV�ZKHQ�,�
was commissioned by “el santuario de chimayó”
in chimayo, New Mexico. i completed three sand
SDLQWLQJV��7KH�¾UVW�LV�DQ�LPDJH�RI�Mother Earth and
the second image of Father Sky “each measuring
4’ x 8’. The third and largest is The First Native Last Supper “measuring 5’ x 15’ “ which took me
about one year to complete. it is on permanent
display in the exhibit area of “The Native American
cenacle” in chimayó. i was also given permission
to add the holy dirt from the sanctuary‘s designated
area, where many miracles and healing have
purportedly taken place.
i attended the institute of American indian
Art in santa Fe, New Mexico and received my
Associate of Arts degree in May of 2011. Then, i
attended the university of New Mexico in Gallup
and Albuquerque and worked on my Bachelor of
Fine Arts degree. i would like to complete my BFA

the right art school.
That is one of the reasons i returned to
southern california, but i have always had a

other artists – on Friday, May 3, 2014, from 11 am to
5 pm i plan to be there for the spring into summer
of 2014. The gallery is located at 34567 rancho
california rd. in Temecula, california 92592. it is
open wed. thru sun. from 11 am to 5 pm i invite
you to pass by or plan a trip in the near future to
enjoy the art gallery, as well as the scrumptious
scenery of the vineyard and the winery sites that
are offered at the beautiful location of Temecula in
southern california.
My project in progress, to be completed in

of 4’ x 8’ panels of the united states of America
and surrounding oceans. when completed, it
will measure 16’ x 24’. This will show my vision
and perspective of the climate change that is
affecting Father sky and being manifested with our
unbalanced weather as well as with Mother earth.
This change is affecting endangered species,
¿RUD�DQG�IDXQD��LQ�FRQQHFWLRQ�ZLWK�WKH�VHDVRQV��
including human survival as we experience it.
Throughout my life, i have perceived a different
vision of animals, who are facing many challenges
within their changing environment. i want to
send, through my paintings, a message of hope
for our animals that are still here today, as well
as for humankind, supporting the world for future
generations to coexist in harmony together.
