WHO WE ARE
I have been a practicing artist for 30 years where I have practiced painting, printmaking and mixed media art mediums. My subject matter is very much so derived from my surroundings.The hustle and bustle "career" oriented lifestyle never appealed to me anyway, so at the age of 19, I took a job in Yellowstone National Park. The majestic landscape, mysterious wildlife and untamed beauty inspired my soul. I fell in love instantly and have remained in the regional area since 1999. I currently reside in Tetonia ID where I gaze upon the Grand Tetons from my window daily. I have never left because the inspiration remains bountiful daily.
