Friday, October 3, 2014 at 2:08PM For the past 12 months, I've been working on 25 large scale canvases that focus on the oil & gas boom in Texas. I am preparing for a solo show at David Dike Fine Art in Dallas. The show, entitled "Oil on Canvas - Paintings of the Texas Oil & Gas Industry", opens Thursday, November 13, from 5:30-8:30. - You're invited!
Wednesday, August 27, 2014 at 3:10PM Earlier this year, I spent the day on a big oil rig in Pyote, Texas (west of Midland) with my friends Adam Fish (photographer) and Chris Mano (filmmaker). We were given access to the property by my good friend, David Arrington, who was very gracious to allow us to freely roam, ask questions and take photos. David's geologist was also very helpful in educating us on the basics of the industry. - The idea to create paintings based on the Texas oil industry has been on my mind for several years, and this November I will introduce a series of large scale paintings in a solo exhibit at David Dike Fine Art entitled Oil on Canvas - Paintings of the Texas Oil & Gas Industry. The show will open Thursday, November 13 and run through Saturday, December 6, 2014. More to come -

Monday, May 19, 2014 at 12:06PM For the past 4 months I have been busy preparing new work for a show I'm having at David Dike Fine Art on Thursday, November 6 called "Oil on Canvas" (paintings dealing with the oil & gas industry in Texas). - For the past couple of weeks I have taken a break from the oil & gas paintings and have created some images that are less stylized and a bit more impressionistic. - Here are a few of those pieces. -

Monday, April 21, 2014 at 9:21AM The University of Texas at Dallas has asked me to show a selection of 15 works this coming Saturday, April 26 from 7:00-10:00pm, at an event called Artistic Impressions of Management. All the work will be for sale and the proceeds will benefit the Jindal School’s art fund, which will be used to commission me and other contemporary artists to create works for the new building expansion. This collection is designed to provide a cultural experience for Jindal School students as they receive a world-class business education.
