"...one of my favorite artists in the region. Nice to see your name in the enrichment catalog, making that huge skill set of yours available to students.  Good man!" Tim Earl, Laramie, WY

I like a diversity of style. My art enthralls, not to win ‘customers”, but to make a dull world tolerable, more creative. My art allows people to indulge in an artistic viewpoint. In my contemporary figurative works, there are witty, tongue-in-cheek expressions of mythology. Look at my Wyoming landscapes and find a sense of Barbizon School realism, there’s impressionist still-lives and through it all runs my appreciation of color. When I’m painting portraits, I look for honesty in the personality and try to bring out the most appropriate creative expression possible in that interaction.

Born in 1963, Ft. Deavens Army Hospital, Ayer, Massachusetts, eighth in a family of nine, I spent the bulk of my childhood in Tacoma, Washington, a culturally rich center of commerce and activity, a place filled with artistic endowment and visual inspiration. In 1985, I moved to Laramie, WY—a town and a state that stand in stark contrast to my former place of residence. To tell the truth, I’m still not “settled in” artistically. I live with my family in a century old house once owned by my great-grandparents, German immigrants who settled in Albany County in the 1880s.

Attended the University of Wyoming, Sociology and Art [1995]. I have served as an art editor for the University of Wyoming literary arts journal, the Owen Wister Review; briefly published an online magazine that focused on the Arts and Culture of the Northern Front Range. In 2006, I returned with Gallery of the NorthernFront, a “Virtual Art Venue and Artists’ Collective. Currently, I am a local art organizer in Laramie and teach independent art courses for interested adults.
