Statement

My art has never followed a particular theme or plan… I just create and record things of beauty. As long as I can remember, I have been inspired by most everything I see, with things found in nature being my favorite.

My love of all things creative began in my early childhood, and were nurtured by both of my parents who were creative in their own rite. Instead of buying me coloring books, they would buy a pad of paper, crayons, paint, and pens then leave me to create my own fantasies.

My love of photography started in 1976 and ever since, I am rarely ever seen without my camera hanging from my neck. I worked as a journalistic photographer for a few years but soon traded the people and events in for nature. I guess I have always taken pictures in my mind, but through nature and landscape photography I can express my feelings using my camera to record the beauty I see.

Although I was Biology major in college, I kept gravitating back to my art. My next creative adventure was becoming a Graphic Designer (self taught) in the late 70’s, where I utilized all my talents to communicate whether it be a magazine, a logo, or working on movie posters and billboards.

Whether I am practicing my craft with old school techniques, or utilizing mind bending digital media… I tell stories through my art, be it photography, paintings, prints or anything else I can come up with, that represent all that I have seen and experienced, and all that I can imagine.

I make it up as I go!
