About Me

As an artist, I work in styles ranging from photo realism, to colorful, painterly expressions. I am inspired by the world around me and by images from my imagination. I feel that there are no limits when it comes to art and that no artist should be confined to just one style. To view more of my artwork & photography, please visit my website:

My Interests

ART:
Painting in Watercolors, Acrylics, Oils.
SPORTS:
My favorite by far is windsurfing. It's like flying when you catch a steady, strong breeze, with everything in balance, skimming across the waves, pure freedom! Sailing is second best, especially catamarans. Other favs: snow and water skiing, & hiking.
MUSIC:
I LOVE music! I've been to countless concerts. I love the live music experience, the energy created by the musicians and the crowd. I'm fortunate to be making a living as a freelance artist in the music industry.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet people who are honest, socially conscious, "down to earth", creative, and not arfaid to be themselves... I'd like to meet or wish I had met: Paramahansa Yogananda, Babaji, Edgar Cayce, Martin Luther King, Salvador Dali, MC Escher, Jerry Garcia, John Lennon, George Harrison, Bob Marley............
