“We’re all looking at the same sun; it just has a different setting based on where we stand. May art be a unifier. In my landscapes, my focus leans toward the fleeting beauty that surrounds us. Through interpretations of place, I wish to allow the viewer a moment of respite in the bustle of our days: to celebrate the brilliance of color, get lost in the airiness of the sky, or bask in the quietude of our open spaces.”

I've signed up for the Loveland Art Studio Tour since it's my first year that I won't be working at the gallery for the first time in 30 years! Take advantage of this occasion! It is rare for me to open my studio to the public (honestly, it's even rare for family and friends). The actual studio isn't large, but it is adjacent to my living room where I will have several finished pieces on display for sale. I'll have varied sizes and price points and I hope you find a painting that resonates with you well enough to want to live with it. I look forward to showing you what I'm working on this Fall. Bid on an Alyson Kinkade 'Happiness Is' custom painting of your pet plus 10 'Happiness Is' magnets. Winning Pet Portrait is 10x8" original oil. Winner will contact the artist following the auction to provide a photo of your pet to start the commissioned artwork.

CLICK HERE FOR EVENT DETAILS I'm pleased that my painting "Fiery" has been selected for Artworks Center for Contemporary Art's next National Group Exhibition: Engulfed. Opening: July 14th, 6-9pm - September 30th An exhibition shedding light on the crisis of forest fires across the globe. Artists respond to the forest fires by developing work that focuses on global warming, resource destruction, property damage, loss of life, wilderness protection, sustainability, political issues, fire mitigation, first responders, or broadly conceptual work dealing with the interpretation of “engulfed”. "The stark nature of the plains are exaggerated by fiery skies from nearby wildfires. It seems this is the future's appearance, as clear blue skies are replaced by smoke-filled orange; buildings and trees flatten into the horizon as wild fires increasingly rage. The image is beautiful and brutal all at once, brutiful."
