BIOGRAPHY
I'm originally from the Metro Los Angeles area where my artistic ability was uncovered. Following the revelation, I was taken to a family friend who worked for a well known LA designer for private art instruction.
When I first entered college I continued to follow this path majoring in fine art. During this period I received instruction in drawing, painting, sculpture, 2D design, and figurative art before venturing out on my own.
After leaving college I was offered a number of commissions from collectors and publications. Paintings were commissioned for homes in Beverly Hills, Pasadena, and other sections of Los Angeles, CA and the Big Bear Inn in Big Bear Lake, CA.
Starting in the '90's I changed goals for a number of years and completed undergraduate and graduate Geography programs. My studies focused on regional, urban, and environmental areas of the human condition and our sense of place. It was this sense of place involving public art in my thesis that sparked an interest in creating art again.
