Location Montgomery Village, MD, United States
Introduction I attended college at Carnegie Mellon University where I earned a BFA in graphic design. My interest in abstraction flows naturally from being a designer. After beginning my design career in 1970, I started my own business in 1977. Recently I retired to pursue my interest in painting full time. Over the years I have taken a variety of painting classes at Montgomery College and with private instructors, most notably Skip Lawrence and is currently taking open studio at the Delaplane Center with Ed Ramsburg. "I scrape, squirt and rub the surface until I get what I want. For me, it's all about the process. I generally have something in mind when I start a canvas, but in reacting to each mark made, I often wind up in a very different place from where I started. Having been a graphic designer for so many years, composition and structure are very important to me as well as surface texture and color."
