Thomas Gilbertson

I went to school on the GI bill after I came back from Vietnam. I taught art at various venues and was artist-in-residence in Colorado and Nevada before settling in for 12 years teaching at a community college on the US/Mexican border. Today I live on an acre of land north of Reno with my 2 dogs, 2 cats, and wonderful wife. When I'm not making art I'm probably picking on my guitar, pulling weeds or tending the garden, drinking excellent coffee (...or Scotch,) or watching movies and tv series on the tube with my wife and 2 dogs. Life is good.
