Always an artist, my first published drawing was in Life Magazine in 1964 on the Charles Schultz theme “Happiness is” and mine was a boy with a broad smile titled “Happiness is clean teeth.” I earned my living as a graphic designer for many years in Los Angeles and New York and now enjoy painting and selling watercolors and oils, frequently done in the plein aire style. I love the experience of being outdoors enjoying nature, the site I’m painting in and often with the company of other painters.

Raised in Northern California and schooled at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena.
