Brief Summary
I have been drawing, painting and photographing things my entire life. Always a skilled illustrator, in college I studied with Herb Jackson who introduced me to action painting and abstract imagery. That exposure was instrumental in changing my thinking about imagery from the purely literal to a more conceptual approach. It has informed my artistic vision ever since. As life moved forward I switched my artistic endeavors almost entirely to photography until several years ago when I discovered Corel Painter and began to experiment with digital painting. The images presented in the digital Painting Gallery are the product of that work. I have been working as a professional photographer for nearly twenty years and have enjoyed rediscovering painting and drawing combining the latest digital tools with analog techniques. I produce limited edition prints of my digital work that are limited to 50 and are printed on traditional papers, canvas or handmade papers whichever provide the texture and quality that best represents the images.
