Grass Blades




Grass Blades was created in the 90's when I was influence by all organic forms. This was done on a large roll of paper. The images it self has very organic and fluid like shapes, the 3 half circular forms are worms showing coming from the ground. I was much involved with dirt at time, I would get very messy while creating any art. I would spend lot of my time rolling in the grass to see more of this shapes and forms to create more and explore more.




Grass Blades was acquired by Linda Naltermier and is part of her private collection.

Chairs and Paper Balls

Paper balls and chairs is an installation at the World Trade Center for Dallas Market 2011.

Doing the trade show circuit, you find time to be creative even if there is no time to play. All paper balls where left behind from a previous exhibitor on the main ilea where forklift have to make way thou. I organized them in a way to keep it interesting and ascetically pleasing for others to pass by with the fork lift and continue working.

this photo is just a study for what it can become something more than just a pile of trash. I'm preparing a series of landscapes that involved trash and have them exhibit somewhere that they can be see as forms of high art.

Yard Sale Find

While deviating from my duties, I stumbled into a yard sale where it seems kind of wild to see lots of books and some furniture. but lots of boxes that look like trash. I stop to see what I would find and I found a poster of one of my art shows. It was wild indeed to see this. I got it from the vendor for $1.00, and the vendor did not care for it and then after taking my money she realized that I was on the poster. I explained to the lady that this was an art show of two Germans and a Texan called " Tres Hombres". It brought a lot of memories of that time.

This was a outdoor art exhibit, which showed our works while traveling in the West Texas desert. I showed some weather proof drawings and Mark did some wood figures and Washington had some crazy sculpture made out of tree branches and logs. Our work was very different and but casual. those where the days when you fill up your truck and drove to do art in the desert.

Flower Burst

Well, winter is over and painting indoors have become a hazardus way of painting for everyone. It gets the house all full of intoxicading fuems. Getting Oinon peals with red oxidize dirt to make paint is where the reall action is. This proces is more of a treet for me than to others. Others did not like the smell, but I manaage to continue to work in my own and see where my insperations take me. I melt some scrap of gold and pour it to my canvas and see wher it goses from there.

I'm always inspiered by the spontainus part of making the art happen. When Pepole ask me what is it or what I'm painting and I say is what I feel of doing. My work is all about moods that I may be into at that time. This is what makes my works of art.
