The creative process of expressing myself with art has been a lifelong driving force for me. Watercolor and oil are my mediums of choice. Landscapes are my favorite subjects. I also paint portraits and still lifes.

I paint in a realistic manner, something that has served me well from my long career as an illustrator for major companies such as Kenner, Hasbro, Mattel, Toyota, Mazda, Sears and Penneys. While I was employed full time I painted whenever I could. My first solo show was at the prestigious Cincinnati Art Club in 1979. 

That same year I moved our family to California to continue my career as an illustrator and designer on the West Coast. Again I continued to paint and became a member of two fine art organizations and a member of the Illustrators Society of Los Angeles. Two of my paintings for the U.S. Air Force are hanging in the Pentagon in Washington, DC. I have won various awards over the years and my paintings are in numerous public and private collections. 

I have shown my work in galleries in Palm Desert, Oakhurst and Orange County in California, Sedona and Scottsdale in Arizona, and Park City and Salt Lake City in Utah. Presently I am enjoying my association with Gallery 25 in Ogden, Utah. My love of painting is stronger than ever and I have finally been able to devote full time to this endeavor.
