Wildflowers - (Still life) 8"x10", Oil on panel. 
Victorian Morning - (Plein Air) 5"x7", Oil on panel. This dignified, but weathered old lady sits just off the Square in Waxahachie. Probably too far gone for repair, it quietly speaks of grander days when cotton reigned in this Texas prairie town.
Watermelon Truck - (Plein Air) 5"x7", Oil on panel. The Paint Historic Waxahachie event kicked off with a 90-minute quick draw in the courthouse square. A farmers market brought in produce and other sellers to add visual interest for the 40 or more speedy plein air participants.
Beans, Beef and Coffee - (Studio) 24"x30", Oil on canvas. Going on suppertime at the encampment. Beaumont Ranch reenactment weekend in Grandview, TX.


Red Hair Clip - (Studio) 8" x 10" Oil on panel. Available at Frame Up Gallery. Mt Vernon, TX 
My interest ranges from landscape to figurative to still life and western in subject. With sketchbook in-hand, I explore the possibilities wherever I happen to be. I work mostly in oils, both studio and plein air, my passion being the outdoor painting. Appealing to the wanderer in me, it combines a love of the outdoors and capturing what I see with pen, pencil and brush.
"A MOMENT'S PAUSE" Graphite on paper. Approx. 7x5". "Pencil painting" is how Ferdinand Petrie introduced this method of drawing while I attended duCret School of Art. I love the sense of color that the use of various lead hardnesses will produce.
