These three paintings are inspired by the high desert, along the Turquoise Trail, in northern New Mexico …the cold glow of its moonlit nights, the warmth of its ever present sun, and the gentle beauty of its arid landscapes.

Sometimes there is more of a direct relationship between specific places (their shapes & colors) and my work, like seen in these images, but more often than not my work is a conglomeration of places, landscapes, and experiences.

Last night’s sunset from my studio in New Mexico and a painting from five years ago in Arizona. …another example of how I see things and how I see nature and places.
