I'm a retired, Middle School art teacher from Kansas who decided to move to Albuquerque, New Mexico. I have maintained a web site called taospaint.com for several years. Frani (my beautiful wife of 46 years) and I have two sons and six grandkids. Three came as a set (triplets). We also have three great-grand kids, all boys. Frani makes quilts and I paint watercolors.
Being retired, I have time to do stuff I enjoy. I'm a docent at the Albuquerque Museum. My team gives tours for school children twice each month. I'm also active in the New Mexico Watercolor Society. From time to time I do workshops for art teachers at state or national conferences. I have created web sites for the New Mexico Art Education Association and for an author in Colorado Springs named M J Brett.
If my writings get political from time to time - it can't be helped. I was born a Liberal Democrat. Frani and I believe strongly in "Unions" and have always been members of organized labor - be it UAW, NEA or CWA. I consider myself a Populist and supported John Edwards for President. Besides ending "Bush's Damn War", Education, Health Care and Ending Poverty should be our top priorities. We are strong supporters of our new president Barrack Obama - who we proudly voted for
Since 1985, I've been driving from Kansas to Taos, New Mexico to paint watercolors. I still attend the Adams State Watercolor Workshop at the Sagebrush Inn, in Taos, every June. Ken and Louise Blair are the greatest Inn Keepers in the world. They treat us like royalty. Frani is sure I go there just for the food, she's probably right.
