Scratchboard lovers, visit my website or come by the studio.

I have been an artist my entire life. To me art is as essential as the air I breathe. I have attained the amazing age of sixty, which is enough time to explore many mediums. I have maintained a studio at the Torpedo Factory since 1994 where most of my work has been in acrylic, oil, etching or scratchboard and ranges from realism to abstract. I have always been a drawer and painter, but I also built stained glass windows for the Fountain Court in the Jordanian Palace; etched glass for James Brady and Barbara Bush; worked as the art director for "Powerhouse", a PBS series; and became assistant art director at a high school for the deaf where I also taught black and white dark room technique to select photography students.
