Remember the Alamo

My friend Michael Kirby pointed out the other day that I had fewer Texas paintings than he expected. He was right, and I knew I had to do something about it. You see, Texas is where I learned to paint the landscape with my friends John Kuehne and Steve Armes. 

Now, Texas - especially around Dallas - isn't exactly a landscape painter's paradise. But it does have a certain charm to it, just like Texas does with most everything. I was fortunate that I got to go all over Texas and paint so much of its variety. So I just posted paintings of El Capitan (the highest point in Texas), Big Bend, the Brazos River, and to complete the circle - bluebonnets.
