The Artist's Story

I was born in Montreal, Canada in 1952 and moved to Memphis, TN in 1981.  In 2006, I moved to historic downtown Summerville, SC which is 20 miles northwest of Charleston.

While some of my earlier work was concerned mainly with realism, my new paintings have pushed me toward a more personal, intuitive and semi-abstract style.  It has allowed me to fuse all of my past explorations and rediscover myself as the artist I am today.

Over the past 27 years, I've been active on the boards of various art guilds and volunteered my time on what I've considered very worthwhile non-profit projects.  I have also had the honor of serving as juror or judge for various art competitions.

I teach both adults and children in ongoing studio classes or in workshop settings.
