"Clements' rich deep color palette and masterful use of light combine to bring sensitive and provocative paintings to life. A strong sense of nostalgia is invoked in both his beautiful figurative work and his intriguing 'Out West' series."

"I've just discovered your artwork. Its phenomenal! I just wanted to say thank you for capturing the beauty of Native Americans and our cultures."

Fall Show Schedule
American Plains Artists Juried Exhibit and Sale. This is the 26th year for this show and this year it will be hosted by the Great Plains Art Museum, 1155 Q Street in Lincoln, Nebraska. The show runs from Sept. 23 - Nov. 28, 2010. I'm happy to be included again in this show with some very fine artists.
Arts Festival Oklahoma. This will be my first year participating in this show in Oklahoma City, at the Oklahoma City Community College. Times and dates for the three day event are Saturday, Sept. 4 from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Sunday, Sept. 5 from 10 a.m. to 9 a.m. and Monday, Sept. 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
This is one of Oklahoma's largest fall festivals. I hope you will stop by to say hello!
National Small Oil Painting Exhibition 2010. I'm honored to be juried into this show for the second consecutive time. The show will once again be held at the Wichita Center for the Arts, 9112 E. Central, Wichita, Kansas. This exhibition will run from Sept. 10 through Oct. 24, 2010.
2010 National Cowboy Symposium & Celebration. This is one of the largest cowboy culture events in the United States, taking place in Lubbock, Texas. It was designated as one of the top 101 Great Western Events this year in American Cowboy magazine. Last year they documented vistors from 48 states, and have had attendees from Europe as well. I'm excited about being asked to participate in the event. I'll be set up Friday and Saturday, Sept. 10 &11, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. each day. If you're in the area, please stop by!
Spirit of The West Festival. I'm happy to return to this great festival this year. It takes place in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and is packed with family-friendly fun. This event has been designated one of 101 Great Western Events for 2006, 2008, 2009, & 2010 by American Cowboy Magazine, and
voted Best Heritage Event by the readers of American Cowboy Magazine in 2009. Event times are Friday, Sept. 17, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Saturday, Sept. 18, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.; and Sunday, Sept. 19, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Last year I painted portraits of Western TV actors Robert Fuller, James Drury and Peter Brown, who were also part of the festival. Lots of fun, hope to see you there!
American Royal Art Show and Sale. My paintings sold out at last year's show in Kansas City, Missouri, so I'm pretty excited to be a part of it again this year. I will be attending the Blue Jeans Reception on Thursday, Sept. 23 from 6 - 9 p.m. I have agreed to do a painting demonstration as part of the reception. The location of this event is 1701 American Royal Court. Please come by.
Walnut River Festival. I've done this festival for several years and it's the easiest to set up because all I have to do is carry my easel downstairs from my studio. Each year, in El Dorado, Kansas the town blocks off the downtown intersection and holds a community festival for kids. I paint one-hour portrait studies of as many kids as I can before it ends. It's great because with all the fun activities they have organized I still have kids waiting hours in line to get their portraits done. The kids get to keep their portrait and I get a free model out of the deal!
