The mission for my work is to convey, as convincingly as possible, the color & feeling of the people, flora & fauna I find all around us. My aim is to convince the viewer that, in the most ordinary ways, beauty surrounds us and can inform our lives.

The menu tab on the left will take you to a link for my BLOG. There you'll find a few slideshow demonstrations of recent artwork . I am available for commission,  if interested please contact me at joe_ruiz@bellsouth.net to make inquiries.
