Hello again.

To be brief: tragic deaths of beloved Gallerist and Collector, art damaged in flood, mysterious gallery goings-on, Graduate Study, a freak case of mono, injuries, and finally a return to my old career as a scenic painter in film and television.

That covers 2011-2014.

I'll post pictures from (working title) Jane Got A Gun, and A Million Ways to Die in the West soon.  We just wrapped re-shoots last week.  There was a bit of thrilling old fashioned scenic wood graining. 

At the end of my sixth twelve hour day on a very working class set with heavy equipment, solvents, carpenters, grips, dust and lifts, I can honestly say that I still love paint and basic coating chemistry so much that I would do the job for free.

Pictures soon.

My roomy studio in Santa Fe is now functional. The large paintings that were not possible in the 1950's camp trailers can finally be completed without covering every stitch of furniture, clothing and utensils in the trailers with rayon fibers. I am sincerely grateful to have had such a long suffering, flock tolerant household.
