I came across this scene near Anza Borrego Desert State Park. There was something ironic about the decaying trailer with modern windmills whirring a short distance behind it. And beyond those beacons of man’s ingenuity and persistence was the demanding, austere beauty of the desert.

My travels to remote and emptier parts of the western U.S. are the source and inspiration for my paintings. I am drawn to objects and scenes that not only speak of another time and place, but that ask the viewer to contemplate the beauty, dignity, and mystery of their existence. The vast and empty expanses of the West can also can be the subject matter of my paintings. And when I am between paintings, I enjoy portrait drawing.
