About Me

My photo
I began drawing and painting at a very young age and knew early on that I would choose art for my life. I achieved success early on in high school and college in the arts, but after college, I felt compelled to a career in ministry and have spent many fulfilling years helping others find their purpose in life. Through the years, I continued to paint mostly for enjoyment and as an outlet, but in 2007, I realized that an important part of my own life-purpose was creating and painting. The internet, which of course was not available 25 years ago, is such a useful tool for artist, opening doors and providing exposure that would otherwise not be possible. With this new opportunity, I have been pursuing painting and marketing my art whole heartily, usually painting on a daily basis. I live in Tucson, love to jeep, love to paint and study art, and my paintings are often inspired from some remote mountain location in the high desert.

The Dance on Sombrero Peak


Most People would think it too hot to be in Tucson this time of year. Yes, it is very hot and yes, it is really very humid with the summer monsoon time being here. But, I am here and I had the opportunity to take a drive yesterday evening with my wife and son to the north side of Sombrero Peak in Marana, Arizona, to catch the sunset. The views were amazing and the sun seemed to dance across the peak and through the lush desert. Stunning to say the least. So all you snow birds who have "flown the coup" for the hot summer months, it really is quite beautiful this time of year, too! See you in October. This painting is 11X14 and is titled "The Dance on Sombrero Peak".
