ANNOUNCING "ON THE ROAD" (IN NORTHERN NEW MEXICO) - A MOVEABLE FEAST!

5/18/11 -- Have been traveling back roads here in northern New Mexico seeing places I've not seen (even after 44 years in a place one can be surprised!) - all new material for my paintings -- a wonderful new beginning. With the completion of "ABIQUIU DREAMING" (featured below) I have decided to begin a series of 30 new paintings entitled "ON THE ROAD". Am giving myself until next February to complete the series. In the meantime, stay tuned.....I will journal my process on this blog. If you would like to receive e.mail updates, feel free to subscribe. Stay tuned! DC
