Traveling for Work
These personal commissions and projects with Evergreene Architectural Arts were done while working out of town. I often have a chance to work with my wife Maricela. Working with your spouse is not for everyone. For us, it's a gift. It is an opportunity for collaboration base on our decades of rapport. A chance to see, experience and share new things.

Traveling for Work - Hotel Studio
I still pick up personal commissions and/or work on personal art while out of town. Sometimes the most creative aspect of the project is coming up with ways to work on a 12' canvas, or five 4' x 6' paintings within the confines of an apartment or extended stay hotel. I believe that if you have the need or desire to work, you'll find a way.
The concept was a blending of Upstate NY imagery and Tuscan Landscapes
designed to sit on a builtin desk, and to fold away.
Ready to transfer to color primed panels
I had to adjust the bg metallic gold on 2 10' x 10' commissioned paintings for a ALoft in Philadelphia.
An 11' x 12' commission painted on floor of a Vegas Hotel Room.
The hotel had and original historic painting of founder Stephen F. Austin. They wanted 2 "modern" variations, on influenced by Picasso and the other created withpixels
When the Work Gets Too Big
Here is the space I work in when I get project that keep me home. It's a defunked Blockbuster Video. It is the antithesis to the hotel studio. Both spaces work...but I can easily admit that having the extra space is liberating.
The concept was to imaging sketchbook size watercolors of Tuscan landscapes, enlarged to 12'
Art in Unexpected Places
The following commissions were created for the Utility Box Beautification Project for San Luis Obispo CA. Each was designed for a specific location. The colorful music theme was designed to sit in front of an Apple Store. The next had a theme of rebirth, sitting in from of a salon. The last is simply a colorful fantasy piece to contrast the monotonous brick wall in front of a bank.
