Artist statement
I am a pen and ink artist. I have displayed works at Rahr-West Art Museum in Manitowoc, Miller Art Museum in Sturgeon Bay and the Neville Museum in Green Bay. I render my shading technique in pointillism. I focus on subjects of rural interest and wildlife drawings.
Biography
I was born and raised in Detroit, Mich., and joined the Air Force at the age of 19. After 3 1/2 years, I started my art career in Chicago. There, I met my lovely wife and after 25 years of marriage and three children, she eventually succumbed to Parkinson's Disease. During that time period, I pursued a commercial art career working for several large companies and publishers. I moved to Wisconsin in 1984 and decided to freelance the rest of the way. I am now retired.
I had a one-man show in Cascade, Wis., in summer 2005.
