BIOGRAPHY

My medium is oil. My subject matter ranges from landscapes to seascapes, still lifes to wildlife. I have entered many juried shows and have exhibited my work in a variety of Fine Art Galleries throughout California. My interest in nature is the source of inspiration for my paintings. The beautiful Northern California coastline and rolling hills are the major focus of my paintings. I enjoy reading about and studying the works of classic and contemporary masters. The most important masters who have influenced me greatly are Rembrandt in the classical period, and contemporary artists Richard Schmid, Howard Terping, Clyde Aspevic, Bill Antone and more. I would describe my painting style as realistic/impressionistic. My paintings have been collected by private sectors and corporations.
