Artist Statement
I have always been drawn to detail in my art. In Junior High, and High School I excelled in Drafting classes. Then, while I was getting my art degree I also completed a one year certificate in drafting. The last day of class, the instructor announced to the class that this was the last year with manual drawing and the move to computer drafting was the future. Not my style! I loved the precision and detail that was required to complete a project by hand, not on a computer screen.

Biography
In younger years I dabbled in art. My classes that required art such as geography and history often suffered because I paid more attention to the artistic aspects than the reports. I was fortunate to be able to take summer art classes in my early teens. Then, at 15 I left school to take a logging job with my uncle in Deadwood, South Dakota in the beautiful Black Hills. Working outside for the six years I spent in that occupation was so rewarding to be able to observe nature in all seasons first hand.
