As of July 2010, I am pleased that my landscape pastels are now represented by the Cutter Gallery in Las Cruces, NM. If in the area, please stop by to see Glenn and Sally Cutter's exquisite gallery of fine art, antiques and jewelry at the corner of El Paseo and University Blvd. It's well worth a visit!

Happy New Year!
2010 is already busy in my studio as I prepare new work for submission to several national exhibitions. My November 2009 show, "A Hillsboro Year," featuring landscapes in pastel of scenes around the Hillsboro, NM, area, was a huge success, well-attended and very nearly a sell-out show. Look for new work on my website's gallery page in upcoming weeks.

The Mountain
Oyster Club Contemporary Western Art Show and Sale began in 1970 as an effort
to help little-appreciated (at the time) Western artists sell their work.
The show has grown to display more than four hundred works of over two hundred
artists each year with the works of lesser known artists hanging along side
well established ones.
