Equine, Western and Eclectic Art

Hi.. Thanks for visiting my site.. First, I'd like to say,, 15% of any purchase of my art, will go to a non profit at the end of the year.

I am under contract with the publishing and licencing company Mainline Art and Design if you are a company that is looking for art for your buyers.

Art has always been a passion with me,, visiting galleriies, going to openings and just dabbling here and there for years.. It was 4 years ago,2005, I decided to take my art alittle more seriously and started classes at the community collage,, here in Longmont,, from there,, The Colorado art academy, were I learned pastel, horses, and more advanced drawing..
I consider myself a horse artist, with them being my most favorite subject to paint or draw although I tend to find beauty in all things and create when ever the subject moves me.
