Many layers of oil paint or pastel go into my work, creating a third dimension in each original piece. The subject matter changes and varies from a study of a single flower to the Alaskan wide open expanses. I am most renowned for my mastery of western wildlife, mountain and water images. I have been juried into 22 national and international shows in the last 48 months, including the prestigious Sonoran Desert Museum show “A Brush with the Desert,” and the Sedona Art’s Center “Tailgate Paint Out 2022.” I belong to the “Signature Circle” for Paint America, and I have “signature membership” in Pastel Society of Colorado and Plein Air Artists of Colorado. In the past I was also included in the prestigious “Plein Air Rockies” taking the Silver Award and Wyoming’s “Prairies to Peaks” taking Second Place (or first place under Best of Show). Previously I was a featured artist in American Art Collector, Southwest Art, Colored Pencil Magazine, and many others. “Plein Air” magazine includes an article written by me and an editorial on my artwork. I am currently being represented by three galleries in two different states. I live in Phoenix Basin with my beloved basset hounds, Mallory and Mr. Gus. I believe I am "Creating a legacy, one original at a time."
