My Father was an artist and taught me to paint and draw at a young age. He loved teaching perspective drawing. I studied painting and design under John Lee, Alden Metcalf and Bill Cumming, then spent 30 years in the advertising and design field, my last 18 years as Creative Director and Designer for a very successful ad firm in Seattle. During that time, I painted in oils, selling art to friends and clients. Please enjoy the paintings and drawings I have posted here.
