Oh noooooooo, not another Artist!
Oh, yes, and I'm in touch with my inner computer geek
so please be patient while all the bells and whistles load on this page.

I've been a Graphic Designer forever as well as an Art Director
and have worked for radio stations (in design, advertising and marketing roles),
newspapers, and magazines and once had my own cartoon strip.
Whatever you need designed, I can probably whip it up.

I want to create paintings but never seem to have the time.
Here's one of my unfinished paintings that I started in the early 90's.
My sister used to chase me around with a book of photos of
very realistic looking spiders and my brother would run after
me with yellow rubber gloves. Little did they know that someday
I'd grow up and learn to paint my memories! :::snerkkkk:::
I can never do anything simple...it always has to be detailed:

Here's a close-up comparing the real Stripey (his name) to the painted one:

What I wouldn't give for a mint set of these guys. They were mail order toys:

Want to see my old Tiki Room? (click below):

Volcanoes fascinate me and I try to visit as many as I can:

I'm drawn to red Tikis, the 60's, mod design, unique jewelry, yellow fields of
gold, Love Letters sealed and stamped in wax, and people who are alive.

You'll most likely find me shooting photographs--here's one that I took of
my Passion Flower plant that blooms in my Fantasy Garden:

You'll also find me making movies, running five miles in the moonlight,
or dreaming about my next adventure. Nothing gets my juices flowing
like travel and I have been to several parts of the world, but
there's always somewhere new to explore and experience.

It's also important to know that I joke around a lot, so don't take me
too seriously and we'll get along just fine. I'm often motivated
to do things just so I can make people laugh...

I follow PAC 10 football every season.
So if you're up for some friendly banter, drop me a line.

..I gotta go steer the blimp...

Punt me!
