Sand Canyon Layers 18″ x 24″ oil  

ARTIST STATEMENT

I paint in my head every day, even if I don’t pick up a paint brush. I see colors and shapes in
nearly everything around me that I can compose into paintings. My favorite images are
landscapes. I like sandstone cliffs, mesas, mountains, and cloud filled skies. I can find paintings
in my neighborhood along the ditches and Rio Grande Bosque. I can even find paintings outside
my studio windows, distracting me from the painting on my easel. I meet up with friends every
week to paint on location somewhere around the Sandia Mountains or almost anywhere within
driving distance from Albuquerque. I paint studies in watercolor, gouache, and oil, bringing
them back to the studio to translate into larger paintings.
