I hold active and signature membership in three juried organizations, the Colorado Watercolor Society (CWS), the Taos National Society of Watercolorists (TNSW), and the Southern Arizona Watercolor Guild (SAWG).

I have received many awards in numerous National and State-wide juried shows, have received national media coverage for my art, and even had a piece prominently displayed on a CBS sitcom. Several of my floral paintings have been released in a line of greeting cards and giclee prints for Peconic Bay Originals, and my paintings hang in collections worldwide.

I use the finest watercolor papers, usually 140 lb. cold-press d'Arches, a 100% rag paper from France. I use other fine w/c papers too, including Strathmore bristol board #400, and when I work on Bristol board I will add a little gouache to the paints, giving me a little more control and giving the painting a bit of an opaque look. Both of these techniques are fun and challenging for me, and I enjoy each equally.

I am available to your group as a workshop instructor (have brush, will travel). My workshops can be structured to the needs of your group and to any level of painters. I also lead an annual painting trip to Selva, a private estate in the Tuscany hills of Italy. Let me know if you would like to be informed of upcoming classes or workshops.
