March 2026 Newsletter: It has been a season of deep reflection and creative growth in the studio. I’m thrilled to finally share some major updates with you—from a new digital home for my work to a very personal feature in one of my favorite art publications.

Years ago, I was invited to teach drawing in a rehabilitation program for men at the Albuquerque Metropolitan Detention Center. The program was called Comienzos—“beginnings” in Spanish—a word that carried more hope than I felt as I drove out across the empty mesa west of Albuquerque.

"Morning Shadows on the Sandias" was selected as one of the Top Twenty paintings for Modern Impressionist Magazine's August/September Modern Impressionist Salon!

I’m thrilled to announce that “Morning’s First Touch” was awarded Best Landscape in the August 2025 PleinAir Salon!

“Morning Shadows on the Sandias” was awarded Third Place in the AIS 26th Annual National Juried Exhibition!
