I went up to O'Keeffe country last June and took some pictures. I am currently in the process of turning them into paintings and here is the first of what will eventually be four or five wide-angle landscapes.

Lost on the High Road

These oil paintings are based on two trips I took with my wife and a good friend between Santa Fe and Taos in the summer and fall of 2009. We got lost both times while driving on the famous High Road that winds from the high desert of Chimayo through Las Trampas to the magical mountain region of Taos, New Mexico.

    These paintings were completed in the studio with the aid of photographs taken in the field.  My favorite subjects are California beaches, Southwestern landscapes, and dramatic cloud patterns. People, dogs, horses, birds and cows will also sometimes appear.
