I graduated with a double major of Advertising Design and Graphic Design from the American Academy of Art in Chicago in 1992. Worked for Tower Records as in-store artist for several months 1994 and then left for Colorado. I did freelance graphic design for 2 years.
I currently work full-time as a director of engineering for a telecommunications company here in the USA. In 2010, I purchased my first DSLR to capture textures and source images for my interest in digital mixed media art. In 2012, I found my style expressed in portraits and conceptual art.
My work has a timeless look exploring the nature of consciousness and finding beauty in the mundane. My work is heavily influenced from Buddhist philosophy, mostly calling out of the divine light and the profound in all beings. Ultimately, my work is handed over to the viewer to interpret as they will, like all art, where it takes on a new life. It's fascinating and liberating simultaneously. The human face and figure are an endless source inspiration and meaning for me.
