About The Artist

My photo
Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
Hello! I am a fine arts painter, with a BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. My primary painting medium is oil and alkyd, and mostly I work in a representational style. My greatest challenge as a painter is to capture the effect of light; and my greatest joy as a painter is to accomplish that. Many thanks to those readers who have been following this blog since Day 1 (May 19, 2008). To those who are visiting for the first time today...Welcome, and thanks for dropping by!

See the exhibit online...

SOLD! "Garden Diptych I", 2017, mixed media on rice paper.
Last Friday night's opening for "Movers and Shakers" at the New Mexico Cancer Center was great! I sold the artwork shown above and enjoyed conversations with dear friends and new acquaintances. To all who came by and said "Hello," I appreciate your support. Thank you!

The entire exhibit is posted online and can be viewed here: A Gallery With a Cause. The exhibit continues through May 19 and can be viewed by contacting Alexandria Tavarez, (505) 828-3791 or alexandriat@NMCCfoundation.org.

I plan to revisit the exhibit myself, so see all the wonderful artwork by the 20 other artists in the show. It's quite a feast for the eye.

Whatcha doing Saturday night?

Invitation to Harwood Open Studios, Saturday, March 3, 2018, 5-8pm
I'm getting ready to go to tonight's opening reception for Movers and Shakers exhibit at the NM Cancer Center (see my last post on Feb 27); and thought I'd better post this invitation for tomorrow night's Harwood Open Studios. (Yes, it's a busy weekend!)

So come on down to the Harwood Art Center at 1114 7th NW (at Mountain Road) between 5 and 8pm and enjoy an evening of art, exhibits, installations, music, refreshments, and food trucks. This is the Harwood's community celebration called "Encompass", and  it's always a big night for the Harwood studio artists, collectors, buyers, enthusiasts, and lookers.

My studio is S-5, upstairs on the South Wing. Come thru the South Gallery and duck around the fun, colorful floating fish that the kids made. I'll be there!
