His paintings hang in many distinguished collections, including that of singer songwriter, Neil Diamond. His work is also included in the highly selective King Collection at the Sangre
De Cristo Fine Art Center in Pueblo, Colorado. He is represented by galleries in Denver, Houston, Scottsdale, Park City, Aspen, and Boulder.
