"Summer Song"  14"x14"  oil/board

The painting "Summer Song" is featured in Southwest Art Magazine next month along with an article about my work.  The article is located in the Emerging Artist section and is titled "Beauty and Balance".  It's very exciting to be included in such a great art publication and have my work recognized.  Here's a link to the article or click:

You can also win the butterfly painting below.  I used Reblev's Venetian medium which contains ground crystal glass. It creates a beautiful texture and brilliant luminosity.  This painting seem to glow from within.  You have to enter before June 15th, the day the winner will be drawn.  Click the painting to enter now!

Opening May 9th

The opening coincides with Passport to the Arts, the weekend event that takes place on Canyon Road every year in May.  Happenings include special openings and exhibitions, art auctions, demonstrations and live music.  More than 100 artists participate in the events, many of them produce work in the Quick Draw which is later offered in a live auction on the Santa Fe plaza.  Various tents are set up where patrons can visit and watch artists create works of art, it's so exciting!  The list of artists creating work live is amazing, click on the link to see a full list and get more info on this great weekend of art in Santa Fe:
