OccupationFull time Art Professional
LocationAlamosa, Colorado, United States
IntroductionAfter 20 years in a design career I turned to painting full time. Plein air painting is my niche and the outdoors is where I find my greatest inspiration. I have been influenced by painters of the American West and Canada where plein air has a great tradition, but also by the expressionist painters of the early 20th century. In the studio I use plein air sketches to create work in oil and acrylic that push the landscape genre beyond conventional boundaries into more varied forms of abstraction with a focus on design. When not painting in the landscape, I work out of my PleinView Studio in Alamosa, Colorado - where I live, paint and teach Painting all year around. I am represented in Colorado at Earthwood Collections in Estes Park, at the Fare Bella Gallery in Manitou Springs, and in New Mexico at Wilder Nightingale Fine Art in Taos.
