The National Stage!


In April, I was invited to participate in the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum's 2026 Small Works, Great Wonders Show & Sale. This has been a goal since I began painting in earnest in 2012. I am thrilled and honored to hang in their hallowed halls among the best artists in the nation, some of whom are my friends and mentors. The event is November 13, in Oklahoma City, OK. For more information, visit https://swgw.nationalcowboymuseum.org/. 


I've been able to paint a lot this year! See my "NEWS" page to read all about the shows, workshops, judging, and demos that have kept me busy. I have also been seen in the Western Art Collector magazine's June and August issue and the upcoming November issue as well (see below). 

This month, I migrated my website to a new host. This gave me the opportunity to redesign my "brand", shifting to a more western feel. My oils and pastels have leaned in this direction in recent years, and I feel a kinship to the genre since I live in Oklahoma. I have a new look to my business cards, too. I tipped it in the photo (below)  to show the letter-press printing and red edges.

The biggest news of 2022 is that my painting, "The Sound of Flying Grouse, Taos Pueblo", was accepted in to the Oil Painters of America's 31st Annual National Juried Exhibition of Traditional Oils! I am thrilled to be a part of this prestigious exhibition, which will be in the Steamboat Art Museum in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. The opening reception is June 3, and the show continues through August 27, 2022. If you're in the area, stop in and see it!

The painting is on the home page of this website, and also shown on the "OILS" page.
