High Road Harvest Auction and Dinner, Penasco, NM

High Road Art Tour had more visitors than ever this year. The weather and the fall foliage were nothing short of perfection, and of course the art, as always, was not to be missed. Thanks to everyone who made the journey.
Before the mountains totally quiet with winter snow, there will be one last gala opportunity to experience work of High Road Artists gathered in one spot. In Penasco, on October 27th, there will be a gathering and auction at Gaucho Blue Gallery, followed by a special harvest dinner at the Sugar Nymph's Bistro. Check this link to find details and times. http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Gaucho-Blue-Annual-Harvest-Art-Auction-and-Dinner/124316444385249?fref=ts.

This is one of the pieces I will be offering at the auction: Another Night Song, collograph print, 6"x6" framed to 13"x13". See you there.

My Bio

Unlike many artists I didn't begin consistently making images until my mid 30's. The two dimensional surface fascinated me. I started with water colors, a natural choice of medium in the watery Pacific Northwest. While living in Seattle I developed a language of image-making that has stayed with me since.

When I moved to the mountains of northern New Mexico in 2007, my world and my artwork opened up in ways I never imagined. Here is a land of high mountain air, abundant sun, striking visual landscape and strong cultural influences. Immediately my colors became bold. My surrounding environment, under a brilliant sky, surrounded by untold natural beauty, sustains plants and animals and the dance of their inter-relationships that inform the works that I now create.
