Hand-Delivering Coyote Ugly

I just hand-delivered my painting Coyote Ugly—nothing compares to meeting a collector face to face. Moments like this remind me why I paint: to spark a smile and a thought that lingers. In this story, a painted tunnel becomes a path to freedom—a quiet nod to resilience. Visit our website to discover the piece and explore the ideas behind it.

This week, I delivered another painting to a great person—a good human being—and it couldn't have made me prouder. Delivering in person isn’t always possible, but I do it whenever I can because nothing beats that human contact. As much as I love painting, seeing smiles is really why I do what I do. Godspeed, Coyote Ugly—make people smile. Think about what it means that Coyote drew a tunnel on the face of a mountain to capture Roadrunner, and yet it’s that very tunnel that Roadrunner will take to freedom...

Life is full of surprises, full of promises. We take it for granted, but even in adversity there is still a light at the end of the tunnel, because everything changes, everything grows, and everything leads to your own path.
