Following graduation in 1973 with a BA in Religious Studies, I worked for four years for several construction companies before returning to graduate school to study architecture. I received an MArch in 1980 and worked in a series of architecture offices until 2005. Since then, I’ve concentrated on developing painting techniques and experimentation with mixed media to this day.

I’ve always enjoyed spending time in both cities and the natural environment. The contrasts between the noisy vitality of urban life and the quiet and sometimes thunderously loud solitude of nature solicit a desire to visually interpret these experiences.
