What’s worse than forgetting your sweetie on Valentine’s Day? Being late for it by two months. So hear they are. Happy March Valentines Day. Happy Anniversary. Happy Birthday to your sweetie. I’m-sorry-I-was-a-schmuck, or whatever other occasion calls for flowers and some love.

The catch of your fingers over spider-web thin cracks on a china teacup.

The slight, musty odor of an old book. The delicate yellow patina of age on hand-embroidered linen.

“These are a few of my favorite [old] things . . .”

If you spend any time on social media, you’ve probably encountered a troll or two. You know – those people who seem to delight in going out of their way to say something rude or pick a fight.

I didn’t have much experience with trolls . . .

Whether  it’s pop or classical music, action or romance movies, or art, most of us enjoy different genres.

In addition to the historically based art I create, I also create pieces based on nature. In “Bamboozled II,” I kept the elements that I love – the metallic plaster background and the gilding – but I also wanted to employ new high relief techniques that I’ve learned.

How long did it take to make that? This is a question I’m often asked when I’m displaying my work at a gallery or art fair. In my head, I’m wondering how to answer . . .

I was looking for a new idea for a petroglyph piece one day and cartoons just popped into my head. 

Art sales online are BOOMING. What are you waiting for?

Buying art can be like buying a car. You fall in love with it, pray you can afford it, hope you’re not going to be intimidated by the sales person, and hope you won’t get a lemon.

No matter the era, no matter the place we express it, the most important things in the world to people are family and love. . .

Whether you’re an enthusiast of Southwest art or you feel the pull and connection to the past and ancient cultures, this vibrant, low bas relief will whisk you back to the dusty, arid lands of the US Four Corners region and the inventive Anasazi who lived there.
