Still hot in Hillsboro, New Mexico, so I now paint early morning or late evening. Works just fine. 

Still working toward a few exhibitions for early 2024. One is a group show at the Branigan Cultural Center in Las Cruces where I will be exhibiting with The Border Artists. A themed show: PLACE. Here is one of the pieces I will have in that exhibit: WHEN THE DESERT CRIES. 30x30" on canvas.

Next is a February through March exhibit at RioBravoFineArt Gallery in Truth or Consequences, NM. There, I have asked a Las Cruces artist to join me in sharing the space. Raul Dorn is a painter and musician with Sister Black Lagoon. No theme in this show for me so I have gone a bit wild in painting anything and everything: abstracts and abstracted representation. I is a delight for me. Her are a few examples of work that will be shown then.

Yes, I even have a few mostly black and whites in the coming exhibit, too. Nolan gone wild. 
DISCLOSURE 29.5x40" acrylic and crayon & charcoal on wood panel.

These are just samples of the many pieces I will be exhibiting. I am always happy to presell work so if you have an interest in knowing prices for a purchase or lay away purchase (all through the gallery), just reply with questions. And remember, the pieces remain in NM until the show ends in late March. THANKS.

Still months to go but I am already excited to show the work!

It's HOT & I'm painting!

Yes, it is mighty hot and still dry in Hillsboro, New Mexico. And yes, my studio bakes daily. Just bought a little swamp cooler to make it easier for me, but to be honest, I have worked in it for 30 years now and the heat...?...once I start painting I just don't notice it much. I'm also working more with the lights on in the eve/night. Cool.

I have been painting larger pieces (it's relative, you know, think 40x40") on canvas of late and now I have started on a few 14x28" diptych pieces on cradled wood panels which don't need to be framed for that very contemporary look. Diptychs have mostly eluded my reasoning, so it's time to give them another try. Loving the challenge. 

I am working toward a February exhibit at RioBravoFineArt Gallery in Truth or Consequences, NM, in their BIG room. Always love to see all my work hanging together. I am usually amazed not only at my output but at the variety in which I use my brush, the palette (titanium white is a current favorite, then back to COLOR), the charcoal, the crayons d'ache and my fingers. Just a short share...now enjoy your summer.
