BIOGRAPHY
I was born in 1961 in New Martinsville, West Virginia, where I lived until 2004 when I relocated to California. Art has always defined my life. It is not only what I do, but an integral part of who I am. As a teenager, I was strongly influenced by the Surrealists and their ideas regarding automatic expression and spontaneity in art.
I have worked in acrylic and experimented with collage, but my preferred medium is graphite. Although I was accepted to the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, I attempted for many years to limit my exposure to art instruction, hoping to discover my own style and techniques with minimal influences from external sources. My current style of art is the result of that effort.
