| Introduction | I am continuously self-taught – meaning that my style is always evolving through curiosity, intense observation, sudden inspiration and experimentation. My style is primarily impressionistic with a sense of what I call rusticity and looseness. Plein air painting typically provides me with a more playful and semi abstract-impressionistic style than does a studio piece. I have studied with a number of fine artists and I do study the techniques of painters whose work I admire. However I take these techniques and convert them into my artistic presentation within my own style. I am a member of the National Oil and Acrylic Painters Society (NOAPS); American Impressionist Society; New Mexico Plein Air Artist’s Society; The Art Center at Fuller Lodge, Los Alamos, NM; and a Juried Member of Contemporary Water Media Forum and a Juried Artist for the 2010 Nomadas del Arte Exhibit traveling 6 Southwest States for a period of 12 months. |
