I am an artist that paints in pastels, with some oils, and acrylics. I sketch in pen and ink. As an artist my original paintings are influenced from living in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Bolivia, Peru and Chile, and travels throughout much of Canada and all our fifty States.
This is my spot for posting paintings and sketches, to muse mostly about art, life and a little about UT Baseball.
I am very slow in getting the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta photos posted. I will give you a little preview with the National Anthem video from October 8. I don't know who was singing, besides me. I forgot you could hear me. When I remembered, I became a spectator. I have hundreds of photos to sort. Until then, you will have to settle for this little movie on YouTube.
I posted it in Mobile mode. Hopefully this way you can see it on your iPhones. I'm not sure that works, but we shall see.
I Grew up in a small town , Magdalena, New Mexico. I enjoy art and the pleasure other people get from my work. I always donate some of my sales and art to charities, especially for children. That started in Bolivia with Para los Niños.
