Here a a few of my works on canvas; these are not available as prints nor over the Internet.

Listed on the right are the galleries where my paintings are currently exhibited (and may be purchased) along with the dates of any upcoming receptions to which the public is invited.

I use mainly acrylic and latex (which I like for providing flat, solid tones and the ease with which it can be poured or scattered onto the canvas).

Art Center of Corpus Christi

I currently have works in the Gift and Members Galleries. I will be exhibiting "Ragged Sun, Ragged Sky" at the Dimension XXXVI show in September. See the work below for details.

Check out the really bad photo of me (note eyes shut as if I had had more to drink that night than I actually had) with my work Fire and Rain, which won third place in the works on canvas category at the Art Center of Corpus Christi's All Members Show in April of 2008. I had created the work only a week or so before entering it and it sold within two days of the exhibition opening.

The award took me completely by surprise and I felt very honored; especially because I had been painting on canvas less than a year and the competition judge was the Director of the Art Museum of South Texas.

Please note that the photo was taken by my girlfriend, Francene Kilgore Sanchez, who takes excellent photos and some of whose photos I have turned into digital artworks. I , in my normally unkempt appearance, must take the blame for the hideous outcome of this photo.
