THE Magazine - Dec '12/Jan'13 has published my Critical Reflection of Harold Joe Waldrum's Exhibition "Windows" @ RioBravoFineArt in Truth or Consequences. This is an exhibition of Waldrum's early work, before the church paintings. They are the essential part of his history, his process, and his life as an artist in New Mexico. As far as I am concerned, you cannot build a garden without the underlying structure. That which is unseen. These paintings are his foundation and the churches, as wonderful and historic as they are, are the landscape planted over the granite.
