Personal Statement:
I am a local artist who has studied widely and exhibits regularly. Much of my work is conceptual as well as being visual. It can be challenging to the viewer, I normally research and plan before I make a quick decision on a work. I consider my work high art and not just wall decoration. I have experience in residential murals and mural restoration and retouching. I have a local mural installation in progress and a restoration commission from the city of Harrisburg. Many of my murals currently exist in Murray, KY where I attended College. Many of my murals focus on people. My largest is 50' long and 10' high, painted for the department of Theater and Dance at my former College. My website is a good source for current work and photo’s of older work. I also write Iridescent Art News for Pennlive.com and I am exhibiting new work various places often and have information listed on my website. Please send me an email if you have any questions or check the website or blog to see my current activity.
