Mediums I have used to express myself have been: silver, oil paints, pencil/charcoal, pastels and watercolor. I've studied under a few, well known artists in Utah and South Carolina.

I have dabbled in art all of my life. As children it was what we did to keep busy. It was what we made for others when birthdays and Christmas came around. However, it was not for making a living--that's what my Dad used to day. Today I am a full-time software engineer, but I love expressing myself with my art, and have set aside one hour a day for this purpose. I was often asked why I didn't quit working and spend all of my time painting. Dad was right; it simply doesn't pay the bills. I have now retired, and still spend at least one hour a day in my studio.

I like to brush life into the scenes that I paint. I like my art to feel calm, cheerful, nostalgic and reminiscent of experiences with my friends and children. In addition to people, I like to paint my favorite places in Southern Utah: playgrounds and parks, open spaces in the desert or mountains, historical sites, and cozy cottages in tiny towns. When I travel, which is not often, small vignettes of those experiences show up on my canvas as well. I like to paint with oil, acrylic, and watercolor. My second favorite thing to do is crochet. I like to do blankets, toys and whatever strikes my fancy. Occasionally, I work with felt, embroidery floss and fabric as well.

We create unique stained glass and kiln formed glass pieces using a variety of techniques, color combinations, patterns and textures.
