It's not the destination, it's the journey.
A Graduate of Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design with a BFA in Graphic Design, I have spent 30+ years in the creative advertising and marketing industries. Holding such titles as Art Director, Creative Director, Photographer and Entrepreneur. While this creative career has been professionally rewarding, fine art had taken a back seat for twenty years. Thankfully over the last decade I have begun to balance and feed my artistic soul by creating my own art. My medium of choice has been oils, participating in juried exhibits, and plein air events for which I have sold original works as well as received multiple awards.
As of recent, my focus has been large format woodblock carving and printmaking. Working in this medium has given me the opportunity to print editions of my work and allowing me to share limited edition prints of my work with both private and corporate collectors domestically and internationally.
Notable corporate collectors include:
- Speedball Ink in 2022 acquired the artist proof of “Monumental” for the company’s permanent collection headquartered in Statesville, North Carolina.
- Legion Paper in 2023 acquired the artist proof of “A Grand View” for the company’s permanent collection headquartered in New York, New York.
