After decades of immersion in engineering precision, the painting process has let me into a deeper world of uncertainty and ambiguity. Its a new life with new eyes for distilling the constant stream of sensory information to make an artistic statement.
About the Artist
Illinois native transplanted to the Washington DC area in 1982. Began a second career in the visual arts as a representational oil painter after a long career as an engineer in the US Navy submarine service and the nuclear power industry. Completed the Compass Atelier Master Artist Program in March 2023.Artist's Statement
I use mostly canvas of medium size (8x10 to 12x16) and an intimate style to focus on what I consider the most interesting part of a bigger scene, with plans to expand the size and scope gradually over the next couple of years.Featured Work
