It has been far too long since I posted but I have been painting and am now using my new camera to photograph new paintings. There will be more to come!
The ruins of Nuestra Senora de los Angeles, sitting atop a hill at Pecos, are part of a long and important place in New Mexico history. They are now preserved by the National Park Service along with the Pecos pueblo ruins and mounds. I was lucky last summer to be there as a large storm was approaching and the sky was magnificent in its richness and color and depth. This particular view of the misssion ruins illustrates the essential lonliness of the place today and as it must have felt at times to the early Franciscan friars.
This is the image that will be on the invitation to the June 7 opening of my show, Forms Large and Small, at the Performing Arts Studio in Norman. The paintings are at a friend's studio for framing but as I get them home and photographed, I will be posting the entire show.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
