Environmental, social, and cultural diversity, these are the
themes I focus on  in my art. The natural calligraphy of a
leafless tree set against a gray February sky, the pensive
look in an old man’s eye, the expressive artifacts of past
cultures… here are subjects for a lifetime.

Over the years I have worked in oils and acrylics, ceramic
and paper mosaics, pen and ink, and photography. I
eventually found my favorite medium in a pencil, a simple
#2 pencil. When color is called for I include colored pencils
but the #2 pencil remains at the heart of my efforts. The
textures and subtle values of pencil work and the simplicity
of working with this medium, all of these appeal to my wish
to make my work an immediate and direct connection
between mind and hand.  

With 25 years of teaching art behind me I long ago came
to recognize the importance of visual communication in
learning about the greater world that we live in and move
through. Art is a natural means of expression for all people
in all cultures. We need to celebrate that expression and
honor the learning it enables. I hope my drawings
contribute to that end.
