Bio/Resume:
In 1979, I attended classes at the Alexander School of Painting in San Diego, California. From Alexander Chidichimo I learned the basics of looking at objects in terms of blotches and shapes rather than objects, and constructing complex color palates.
In the beginning years I focused on realism, painting still-life and portraits in oils, then, moving to pastel portraiture.
In 2014 I developed the contemporary abstract style of “The Gene Pool Series” in oils.
Currently, my focus is on Extreme Realism all in the medium of Colored Pencil.
