| A day in the studio with a 6 foot long pastel painting! |
Welcome
to my on-line studio! My goal is to provide
art lovers with an easy way to keep up with my latest projects, view available pieces, and also offer the convenience
of on-line purchase for special occasions and gift giving. With that in mind, this website has become more of an "archive"
of my activities as an artist, with dedicated pages for my event calendar, awards, and sold works. All of my "available"
paintings are featured on my interactive "Painting a Day" blog site.
To see my "available" paintings, check out my "Daily
Painting" blog. It's an opportunity to see my work as it is created. You can receive daily art updates

What's New...
August 2010-- It's
summertime and the pastels are flying! I've been invited to exhibit at the "San Diego Holiday Arts Festival" to
be held over Thanksgiving weekend (November 26, 27, & 28) at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Presenting the custom "one
of a kind" works of over 400 artisans and craftsmen, this is sure to be a great start to the holiday season. I'm
really working hard to bring a fresh new selection of original works to the show. July 2010--With my
return from a wonderful vacation in Sonoma last month, I'm headed to the studio with sketches and reference photos galore!
Check
out my blog to monitor my progress. At Studio 34A in Spanish Village Art Center (that's my cute little studio pictured below),
my original works are on display seven days a week from 11am-4pm. Meet my studio partners Shelley "the gourd queen"
Madariaga, and Peggy "the textile goddess" Caballero on Friday through Tuesday, or stop by on any Wednesday or Thursday to
say hello and see what I'm working on. Be sure to check my calendar page for other upcoming exhibits. Thanks for dropping in.
