A Day for a Ride

Small watercolor painting of the

mule drawn carriage in New Orleans,

for the upcoming Louisiana show.

My college watercolor teacher would

like to absence of detail! He always

wanted me to loosen up...

Artist's Statement

I love painting and drawing.
I have been doing it since
childhood. I try to paint or
draw something every day.
I also do a lot of photography.
I still teach art, and serve as
a group coordinator for

Go Ahead Tours, taking groups
on trips all over the world,
painting subjects I find along
the way. This blog may contain

current things I am working on,

as well as documentation of my

trips and escapades.

I work in a variety of media including pencil, ink,
watercolor, colored pencil, pastel, and digital photography. I will be offering some of my originals and prints for sale on this blog. You can email me, or call the gallery if you are interested in a piece.
They are also available at the Pea Patch Gallery in Winnfield.

I am a signature member

of the Colored Pencil Society

of America, and a fellow in

the American Artist's

Professional League.

I am always inspired by

God's wonderful creation,

and enjoy painting and drawing

birds, animals, cityscapes

and landscapes.

I want my viewers to see

and hopefully appreciate

a part of this beautiful world

we live in. And if I can help

them do that, and glorify

God in the process, I have

accomplished my purpose.
