Mostly a self-taught watercolorist, I picked the brains of some of the best watercolorists in the country by attending their workshops and studying their work.  Ed Whitney, Tony Couch, John Pike, Bill Proctor and Tony Van Hasselt are a few that have influenced my work.

After a long career in commercial art in the 1980's, I decided to pursue watercolor painting full time.  Since then, I have taught workshops around the Southeast, taught classes at the Jacksonville Museum of Contemporary Art, at the Cummer Museum of Art, and teach weekly classes at my Jacksonville studio (1650 Art Museum Drive) as well as in Palatka.

I am available for demonstrations at club meetings  - As an artist, it's important to take every opportunity to create an interest in watercolor painting.

My work can be viewed at my Jacksonville studio, art fairs, and several private galleries.  Additionally, my art can be seen in several private corporation and institution collections.
