I am a self-taught artist, currently living in San Diego, California. My life has been all about lessons, mostly learned on my own. My father was career Navy, so I have been all over the United States at one time or another; I had to learn early on to cope with change and loneliness. The first rainbow I ever saw as a child filled me with the magic and beauty of colour, teaching me about the wonders of the natural world. A school trip to Europe introduced me to the works of the Old Masters, and with it came an appreciation of painting and fine art. A stay at a commune in Texas taught me that some dreams are not so goode when they are realized, yet at the same time I realized that others are worth fighting to achieve. I am a student of life, and the world is my classroom; I just pray that I pass the finals.

| 关于此艺术家 |
As a student of history I've noticed over the years that various peoples have similar design elements in their art/craftwork, and this similarity cannot be easily explained by proximity, since these designs are global. Pueblo pottery designs have similar basics
with early Greek black figure pottery; African artwork has elements that resemble those found in Australian Aboriginal work. This observation has led me to suspect a shared human symbology, something we ALL share, regardless of culture, belief or heritage, and it is to the exploration of this symbology that my work concentrated in recent years. My goal is to come up with a type of painting that all people can appreciate and relate too, and maybe with this effort I can bring people closer together around the world. |
