I was born in Iowa in 1954. I moved to California at a young age and began painting at 5 years of age. I worked as a commercial artist until a few years ago when I was able to paint full time.
About the Artist
I love to paint and work in many styles but favor oils using a palette knife and my own technique, I call "knife striking".
