Watercolor Artist

I get lost in Oregon nature; it just takes my breath away! By painting from my own photos, I am able to get into every crevice and nuance and let my memory of the time and space take over.

Position

I am a college trained illustrator (1970’s) that chose not to try to make a living with my art- Instead I used my skills for my own leisure.

I retired at 63 and now paint full time. I’m a car guy and pop culture nut so my art reflects that. Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein have been very influential.
