I was born in Washington State and raised in Seattle. My interest in art began in college when an art professor who recognized my talents encouraged me to create large pieces of work and experiment with various media.

I have produced work in watercolors, oils, pastels and acrylics. My work ranges from surrealism to impressionism to abstractionism.

After moving to Los Angeles in 1993, I continued to explore mixing media. In researching historical cave paintings and petroglyphs, I developed a concept that became the basis for a series of work I titled, "Foundations". Furthering the process, I created a unique texturing and use of these symbols in my latest series, "Origins" -- appearing for the first time at the James Coleman Gallery.

I hope you enjoy the work as much as I enjoy creating it.
