About Me

Ah, so you noticed the link labeled "About Me" and actually clicked on it... Well, hi Mom. I'm so happy you located my web site.

The business of showing fine art is new to me. But I have run the gamut of commercial art on a freelance basis for the last two decades. I've churned out cartoon strips, awards, presentations, logo designs, decorations, T-shirts, billboard ads, publication layouts, album covers, caricatures, puppets, web sites, animations and even a couple of original board games over the years for various marketing purposes.

In the course of that time I've managed to squeak out some paintings, and the experience was enough to make me think that was really what I wanted to do when I grow up. Lately, theater arts has become very attractive thanks to the interests of my kids.

Since 1991, my day job has been with the Maricopa County Community College District, first as a graphic designer and later as a web editor. I now create web applications and presentation materials on the Glendale Community College campus. My computer know-how is no bragging point of mine, but I have had the great fortune to work with the brightest as well as the coolest people in the field. It is hard to imagine an office atmosphere that could be more fun, so I can count myself lucky regardless of whether I find a permanent niche in fine art.

My beautiful and talented wife and two children live with me here in Glendale, Arizona, just west of Phoenix, where I was born and raised. Although times can be tough, I have found that my family is the source of inspiration that always eluded me back when I was young and single. Whoever you are, I pray your life should be so blessed.
