I love my work.

it was been a wonderfully busy few months. In January I prepared for my retrospective show; Febuary it opened and closed. I got to meet new friends and collectors and happily 14 paintings found new homes. https://youtu.be/L0w1FJbSNaU?si=OkjA3PUj1BiuxciM In March I gave 5 encasutic workshops,one was 6 days. A lot was covered and new friends made. I feel so blessed to be able that my work is also my love. If you would like to view the short videos, please click on the links.

Ease anxiety with green

My retrospective show Feb. 7

This is a busy time for me as I will be hosting a guest from New Zealand for six days while we explore the encaustic medium and techniques, and possibly delve into some cold wax and oil painting as well. A few days after that, my retrospective exhibition opens for a weeklong showing at the Casa de la Noche in San Miguel. At my advanced age, I want to bring many paintings out of storage and into their forever homes. This will be a special show where I invite collectors and visitors to make offers on my work. You will have the opportunity to own one of my paintings at a reduced price. All reasonable offers will be accepted. If you are not in town, you can check my website to view the paintings available for purchase. The show opens on February 7th from 2 PM to 5 PM and closes on February 16th, featuring an artist's talk at 3 PM. With 65 years as a working artist, I’m not finished yet. I look forward to making room for more creative adventures and continuing to teach the exciting encaustic technique. Here are some comments about my work: "Stunning! Literally every piece in this video is outstanding! Thank you so very much for introducing yourself to those of us who hadn’t had the opportunity to meet you previously." "An enjoyable journey through the years of seeing your work! Great diversity in line and color, keeping the creative door open. It is the equivalent of a writer's portfolio of poetry, short stories, essays, and novels." "Such gorgeous work from the very beginning and continuing today. Thank you for sharing with us. I am truly touched."
