This studio workshop will explore the properties of snow: how the light, and the surroundings, affect the snow, and how the snow affects its surroundings. I'll demonstrate how snow can be used as a great foil for design in the landscape. We will look at the various watercolor techniques that can be employed to enhance winter landscapes. I will present tips on how to simplify, and, at the same time, strengthen your paintings.

Western Art Collections

“Ambushed”, 30x40 oil, has entered the permanent collection of the Arizona Latino Arts and Cultural Center.

It depicts John J. Pershing’s troops under counterattack by Mexican forces during the great “Punitive Expedition” of 1916, that resulted from Pancho Villa’s March 9 assault on Columbus, New Mexico. It’s an interesting chapter in American-Mexican history - and worth a read.
