As an Artist in Residence, I have the opportunity to stay at the Laguna Madre Field Station (LMFS), followed by a week at the Art Center of Corpus Christi to further develop artwork.
Visit me at the Art Center of Corpus Christi, June 11-16 while I develop art based on my time exploring the wildlife on a Laguna Madre spoil island. And follow me on Instagram and Facebook to see my work in progress. An exhibition at the Art Center of Corpus Christi is scheduled for April 2025. |
2024 Artist residency at Quinta mazatlan world birding center
|
Join me once a month as I draw inspiration from the beautiful grounds of Quinta Mazatlan. In morning and afternoon sessions I give participants tools to engage with the space using mark making as a form of meditative painting. All ages and skill levels welcome. Cost is only a $3 park entry fee!
Between sessions I wander the grounds, photograph, paint and journal as I reflect on how the wildlife changes over the seasons. Visit my Residency page for links to resources you can use in your own wild spaces and reflections each month. 600 SUNSET DR. MCALLEN, TX 78503

"South Texas Wild"
installation at Quinta Mazatlan world birding center
As part of my commitment to local conservation, I'm excited to announce the permanent installation of "South Texas Wild" – a series of 10 artworks showcasing the region's flora and fauna. I've worked with Quinta Mazatlan for years, and support their dedication to outreach and education, promoting native landscaping to sustain the rich biodiversity of South Texas. You can see this exhibit in the gallery/bridal room of the main building at Quinta Mazatlan.
