Desert Pigments
1977 – 1990
In 1970, I moved to the high desert near Santa Fe, New Mexico, with the intention to settle down and start my life as an artist. The beautiful landscape, that infamous light and like-minded people was exactly what I needed. I soon became immersed in the study of art, psychology, comparative religion and eastern philosophy.
The powdered pigment paintings, combined with collage, became my way to begin the integration of these explorations.
