Oil Paintings

After surviving the ravages of hurricane Katrina and the associated sudden conclusion of my career in academic medicine at Tulane University, I followed my creative calling to higher ground in 2006. Building on the foundation established by occasional coursework at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts, my focus on creative expression expanded into a way of life in New Mexico.

 In New Mexico I’ve studied with experts in the fields of painting, photography, pottery and creative writing at the University of New Mexico, Harwood Art Center, The New Mexico Art League, and Coyote Clay Studio. My interest in horticulture led to participation in Albuquerque’s Master Gardeners’ Program. 

My oil paintings reflect my passion for plant and animal life, primarily avian. My personal photographs provide unique material for use as models.  Although I paint for internal reasons, the complimentary recognition derived from solo shows and awards at juried exhibits reinforced my interest in showing and offering my work to interested buyers.  

Annual juried fine art shows in which my work has received awards include those sponsored by Encantada, the New Mexico State Fair, the Corrales Old Church, and MasterWorks New Mexico.
