Excerpt from Los Cabos Magazine - Issue #8 - review by Sabrina Lear

A few days into the new year of 1994, Dennis Wentworth Porter drove into San José del Cabo, fresh from a sell-out show at his mountain-top studio in Jerome, Arizona. Not only is he still here, his gallery at #20 Alvaro Obregon in San José’s historic district has been the place for fine art in the area since the mid-1990s. He created a Zen-like atmosphere with plenty of room for each canvas, and as a result, his gallery has a museum quality, with no more than a dozen oils and several jewel-toned pastels on the walls at any given time.

A painter who enjoys complicated compositions and uses brushstrokes and pigments as design elements, Porter’s art is also about the way light strikes life on canvas. To paint primarily representational subjects as well as abstract compositions, Porter uses a complex palette. Like early impressionists, he’s fascinated by the physics of color theory. As an artist who has supported himself solely through his art for more than twenty-five years, Porter just keeps getting better.

Along with gallery manager and photographer, Marlene Lopez, Porter has opened a new gallery next door, The Barking Dog, named for the almost twenty dogs who live on Obregon Street between Morelos and Guerrero. The Barking Dog features emerging Mexican artists, Lopez’s photography, and contemporary works by Jill Logan and Nanette Hayles, both from Todos Santos.
