I have been doing photography for 50 years. As an artist, I don’t limit myself to one medium. I have painted with oil, watercolor, acrylic, and alcohol ink. I have created pieces in ceramic and porcelain. I have made both 2d and 3d sculpture. In recent years, my art has led me to designing functional spaces. I have designed everything from tiny houses to opera houses, bridges, public art, furniture, and lighting.

I am a contemporary abstract artist that works with mixed media and acrylics. I begin a piece with colors in mind but without any predetermined ideas of what the finished work is going to look like. I love the idea of each painting being an unfolding mystery. My acrylic paintings are made with a lot of colors and textures in the hopes of creating a joyful and inspired feeling for the observer.
