Dawn On Abiquiu Lake


I painted this scene in what has been called "Georgia O'Keef''s Back Yard".... a vast area in the Rio Chama Valley where she lived and painted. It was the inspiration of this area that inspired her quote: " Color is one of the great things in the world that makes life worth living"....I totally agree. The painting is 16"x20", gallery wrapped, oil on canvas.This painting is for sale.

The Rio Grande Gorge

This section of the Rio Grande winds about 20 miles south of Taos, New Mexicos' popular ski resort and art community. The rough terrain and white waters invite rafters from around the country. Is there a river in the U.S. that has witnessed more adventure than the Rio Grande?

Mount Sienna

I was inspired by seeing the mass of yellow-browns and reds resting on these golden plains...so I named this painting "Mount Sienna". I'm pretty sure that it was given an "official" name at some point in time, but then there are miles and miles of prarie and mountains across Catron and Socorro counties in New Mexico. This is a 15"x30" gallery wrapped oil on canvas. It is for sale.

Reproductions of this painting are also available. Note cards are 6 for $14.00, you can create your own assortment...choose from a wide variety. Reproductions start at $12.00 each ( 8"x10").

The Outdoor Studio

My outdoor studio is a converted camper. It's at the base of the mountain. I can have up to four paintings in progress there. The windows and openess of it allows me to truly experience & be part of the enviroment....mountain, woods, valley, and even horses and elk grazing nearby add to the inspiration. In this photo I'm working on a painting of the Rio Grande which I'll soon publish.

Box Canyon

The sign on Rt 60 in Socorro County New Mexico has two words..."The Box"
Following the sign is a turn off that is easy to miss, it becomes a dirt road that winds for a few hundred yards. After getting out of my car and walking 200 ft or so, I saw what was meant by the sign. "Box Canyon" is my impression of that naturally created symmetry. 16'x20" gallery wrapped oil on Canvas. This painting is for sale.
