I am a visual artist living in remote West Texas. Our community is full of vibrant and diverse people who have settled in the high plains desert.  We are immersed in epic beauty from the starlit skies down to the minutiae of high desert flora and fauna.  I have been an amateur naturalist since my childhood, collecting insects, bones and plants to study their structure and fineness of materials.  These interests feed my work indirectly.

Working primarily in watercolor and oil, I use abstract and figurative painting as a means of exploring form and expressing metaphorical ideas.  My work has changed from being mark-driven to focus on biomorphic and mechanical shapes.
