Intro:
I left the ill-fitting world of politics 35 years ago to make our family’s living with craft and art. Over the years I’ve been a wood furniture maker, an artist working in pastel and oil painting, a photographer specializing in travel, advertising, portrait and abstracts, and a sculptor working in ceramics. Each of these media have taught me skills, taught me to see in new ways and have enriched and expanded my artistic vocabulary. And while all of those creations are represented here, it is my latest work, the new abstract, or perhaps non-representative painting that really has my attention, and is the impetus for this site.
