Don't miss the place to be....



UPCOMING EVENTS AND EXHIBITIONS


I AM HONORED TO HAVE MY ART ON THE GARDEN TOUR POSTER


The above was painted outdoors in the hot sunlight in Corrales last August.

In a few weeks I will add the other exhibitions coming up for me.  I will be participating in the 

"The Garden Show" at Sumner Dene Gallery in downtown ABQ.  This promises to be a big event!


Corrales has two plein air events scheduled this year...tell you later!

INSPIRATION AND GILDED PAINTINGS!

INSPIRATION AND GILDED PAINTINGS

Inspiration is the "soul of the art".  

Snow at Dawn in Albuquerque...a photo waiting to be painted


Inspiration comes from so many wonderful places.  It is constant.  Over the many years I have been painting there have been only a handful of times when I didn't know what I was going to paint.   I am thankful for that.

I wrote a long newsletter two days ago available on my website.   There is more information/ideas there on inspiration though the main topic was on gilded paintings.  You will there a "how to" and several new paintings gilded with gold, copper or metal leaf.
