Artist Statement
I was born in Washington, D.C. and I’ve lived in the San Francisco Bay area since 1978. I studied at the Rhode Island School of Design and the Rochester Institute of Technology, and have been professionally involved with fine and graphic arts since 1972.

I’ve explored and combined diverse media throughout my career, including etching, painting, photography, and computer graphics. Much of my work is inspired by the flowing forms of water, and I work with nature’s patterns to create artwork with a recognizable yet fluidly abstract sensibility.

My artwork has been shown throughout the United States, as well as in Japan and Venezuela. It has been purchased or commissioned by numerous corporations and private individuals, and I’ve received grants from the city of Burlington, VT and the Center for Cultural Innovation (CCI).

As an artist, kayaker, and environmentalist I’m all about watersheds, so I was thrilled earlier this year when two of my paintings were purchased for the permanent collection of the new San Francisco Public Utilities Commission building. My entry in the current Water’s Edge exhibit is the mixed media work “Water + Color 2.”
