I reside in Peterborough, New Hampshire, where I have worked as an art educator at Keene High School, a builder, and an artist for the past 30 plus years. As a fine arts instructor my areas of focus were drawing, painting, printmaking, and silversmithing. As a builder, my interests revolved around structure and design. As an artist, living in New Hampshire has allowed me the opportunity to see how water, wind, and colors change during the four seasons. I view my paintings and drawings as environments created from a collection of those memories, interactions with nature, and observations. It has been a long journey since those early shows, as my artwork privately evolved while I raised a family and displayed my artwork in local venues. What has remained constant in my journey and artwork is how painting and drawing brings an awareness and perspective to my surroundings.
