I'm primarily self taught in watercolors, traveling around Southern Arizona painting and sketching landscapes, old mining towns, ranch buildings and the like and  have been painting professionally since 1987.   My work draws from the Southwest forms, colors and experiences of Arizona, New Mexico and Colorado; an enjoyment in the act of painting expressing a simpler, more casual approach to life.

My watercolors range from landscapes that expresses the beauty and quiet enjoyment of  the Southwest  to figurative works that express a dynamic quality; using the figure as an opportunity to introduce color and motion.  In each approach I rely on the quality of light and shadow to give a bold quality to my work. 

I have been living in Santa Fe, New Mexico  for the past 30 years.  In addition to my artwork, I  am a practicing Architect with my firm Allied Arts.
