Biography
In 1980 I was living in San Diego and began illustrating training manuals for the Navy. Since then I've pursued every art opportunity that's come my way.
In 1987 I began sculpting and I have hundreds of pieces all across the country. The granite illustrations on the Granite Memorials page likewise number in the hundreds from Idaho to Texas to Eastern Pennsylvania. The large foam sculptures were carved in a field in northern Kentucky, the 25' x 50' Jaguar water slide was completed in 5 days.
In 2017 I moved to Phoenix (as you can see from the sketches). I now live in Prescott, Arizona where it's much cooler in the mountains. I hope you check me out occasionally and see what I come up with. Digital paintings are ongoing.
