The Poetry of Place

Beauty is truth and truth is beauty.

I am a southwestern artist passionate about expressing the deeper qualities and metaphors I sense in nature. Many of my oils, acrylics and pastels (see menu above) are available for purchase as either originals or prints, either directly or through my galleries Click here.

I also invite you to read about my philosophy of art and life, for I see the two as quite intertwined and are the subject of a book I am currently writing. The principles of beauty, at their core, are the same as the principles behind all creation. These principles can help you be a better artist, and a better appreciator of life.

To contact me or get on my email list for my newsletter,

May you enjoy the beauty and love that is everywhere, within and without. It is as simple as slowing down, quieting the mind, opening the heart and seeing what is, in deep appreciation of That from which all arose.
