Arizona’s largest and longest-running artist studio tour, Hidden in the Hills, takes place during the last two weekends of November.

The tour is held Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 22, 23 and 24 and Nov. 29, 30 and Dec. 1.

Coordinated by the nonprofit Sonoran Arts League, the free, self-guided tour attracts thousands of patrons who appreciate fine art and seek a variety of mediums, styles and price ranges, according to a press release.

Fountain Hills artists Justine Mantor-Waldie and Judith Rothenstein-Putzer are two of 179 artists participating in the 28th annual event, which features 44 studios throughout North Scottsdale, Cave Creek and Carefree.

Award-winning artists, Mantor-Waldie and Rothenstein-Putzer have been designated “juried” status by the Sonoran Arts League and the Arizona Art Alliance, indicating a consistently high quality of work in their respective media.

This is Mantor-Waldie’s 20th year participating in the event who will exhibit her pearlescent inks and etched paintings created on Ampersand Scratchboard that depict radiant sunsets and desert cacti. Her new works include a wide variety of small paintings in addition to her large acrylic and ink paintings and giclee prints.

She will return to pencil artist Dick Mueller’s “Coyote Crossing” Studio No. 2 in Cave Creek.

Rothenstein-Putzer’s mixed-media alcohol transfers embellished with ink create linear and color effects in the artworks.

Her pieces range in size from 4”x4” to 24”x24”. She continues to expand her Cityscapes series with the addition of some Skyscrapers, which she says are “skinny works for narrow spaces.”

This is her 13th year participating in the art tour and she will return to ceramic artist Sylvia Fugmann Brongo’s Studio No. 34 in Cave Creek.

Artist studios are open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. during both weekends of the tour.
