Betty and the portrait she was working on..

Somehow I failed to take a picture of Betty while
she was working on her portrait so I thought I'd
just show you the finished piece along with a picture
of Betty working. Ordinarily I would have cropped
the purple tape out of the picture but since it was
not taken straight on, cropping and straightening
the picture distorted it so I left it as it was.

Galleries that handle my work...

I am very pleased to announce that I am now being represented by two galleries. I've had a wonderful working relationship with Southwest Gallery in Dallas for four years. As of February 28, originals of my work can also be purchased through Wally Workman Gallery in Austin.

Southwest Art Magazine - January 2008

From 1987 to 1997 I subscrived to Southwest Art Magazine. Receiving my copy soon became the highlight of my month. If you had told me back then that someday my work would be in Southwest Art and that I would be considered as an "artist to watch" I know I would not have believed you. If I could have gotten the words out of my mouth, I'm sure I would have asked, "how could that be possible & when?". So you see, for me it's a really big deal and one of the highlights of my life.
