One of My Favorites

Even though they are not indigenous to Arizona, I do occasionally spot them in someones flower garden. They always remind me of my time spent in the Pacific Northwest. A very beautiful place…but those endless gloomy days most of the year make it tough for a sunshine lover.

First of all, let me borrow a line from the Grateful Dead...what a long strange trip its been. I grew up in Appalachia, not far from Wheeling, West Virginia. I decided at seventeen that working in the coal mines was not for me and soon found myself standing at an on-ramp with my thumb out. It was the Sixties and adventure beckoned. I'm a self taught artist, primarily focusing on the natural world. I enjoy painting the flora and fauna of this beautiful planet. I currently live in Arizona, and most of my recent works reflect the inhabitants of the Sonoran desert.
