After 35 years as an architect I retired in 2019 to pursue my life long dream of being an artist. Since purchasing our cabin in 2018 and moving to Rappahannock full time in 2020 I’ve followed that dream with the same passion as I pursued architecture. Although my work is non-representational it is informed by the beauty of our environment, music, color and visual experience. Acrylic paint is my primary medium, but other materials such as pastes, additives, and paper are used to achieve multi-layered textured compositions. The paintings evolve through an intuitive process of applying color, texture, and marks to arrive at a finished piece that reveals the history of its making and the joy in the process.

Our studio is in the lower level  walkout of our house. We intentionally designed the space so we could indulge our creative process without worrying about making a mess. For the tour we set up our garage as a gallery so visitors can easily view the art.
