Blog

It all started with a surprise email from the editor of Watercolor Artist magazine back in March.  Soon she connected me with Ann Emmert Abbott, a Cincinnati-based freelance writer and former editor of the magazine.  After many emails, a telephone interview with me and an untold number of hours she must have spent going through my website and blog, Ann wrote "The Way of the World," a feature article about me and my work that has just been published in the December issue of Watercolor Artist.

Back in April and May, I also worked with my photographer, Michael Campos of Campos Photography (phone 760-504-0324) for photo shoots of a number of my new paintings in order to prepare images for the article.

I received my copy of the magazine a few days ago and am thrilled beyond words to see how everything came together.  Nine paintings of mine, including Fushimi Inari Shrine, Kyoto, Japan III and Pacific Coast Highway V are featured in the 8-page article.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Kelly Kane, editor of Watercolor Artist, Jessica Canterbury, managing editor of Watercolor Artist, Michael Campos, a fine art photographer and Ann E. Abbott, a wonderful writer with a big heart.

The magazine will hit newsstands in the U.S. on October 26.
