In 1965 I was 17 years old and I wanted to be an artist. For various reasons I did not and instead I became an engineer and subsequently president of National Geographic’s mapping business. 40 years later I retired to become a full-time artist. 

 

Exhibited internationally at universities, art centers, museums and galleries, I have participated in more than 120 exhibits including more than 30 one-person exhibitions and have been recognized many times including several best of show awards.

 

I am a frequent speaker and lecturer and my art and mission have received considerable national and international media coverage including NPR Morning Edition, NPR Atlanta City Lights, ABC/Scripps and the Associated Press plus many more publications, TV broadcasts, podcasts and interviews. . 

 

I grew up in Burlington, Wisconsin. My wife Mary Kay and I live in Boulder Colorado. Previously we lived in Winter Park/Fraser Colorado, St. John US Virgin Islands and several other places.
