Traveling widely, he is a painter who sees with a Westerner’s eyes.
He was recently made an honorary captain by the Former Texas Ranger Foundation, Fredericksburg, Texas. for his historical paintings of the Texas Rangers. He was awarded the 2014 Art Committee Choice Award at the Briscoe Museum’s Night of Artist show and the 2014 Wells Fargo Gold Award at the Buffalo Bill Art Show and Sale in Cody, Wyoming.
