Raised in the Pacific Northwest throughout Oregon and Washington I moved to Alaska in 1994 living in the Copper Valley for 10yrs. Then the Lower Coastal Villages including Ketchikan, Hoonah and finally Sitka. From land to sea I became a fisherman living in boats and a float house in a remote bay.
I have been an Artist since my youth. Primarily self taught, I did attend some college to master some aspects of art. Though currently working in Ink and Pencil I have done Watercolor, Portraits, Acrylic on several Mediums including Glass, Wood and Canvas. I am crafty and have explored various mediums and styles.
My first award was won in 6th grade. Where my drawing was chosen throughout the school students to be painted as a permanent mural on 1 of 3 of our new gymnasium walls. I have continued to compete at fairs obtaining 1st place on my portraits and landscape works. This got me private commissions
