ARTIST STATEMENT

Many of my fellow artists are no longer creating. They tell me they are tired, they’ve run out of ideas, they’re too old. Personally, I hope to never reach that threshold. My mind continues to be crammed with images and ideas, and I still look forward to facing these creative challenges.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Early studies at American Academy of Art in Chicago, under the tutelage of Eugene Hall, instilled a desire for challenge and experimentation. My first taste of printmaking was at Barat College in Lake Forest, IL, followed by further studies at College of Lake County in Grayslake, IL under Dan Ziembo, with D. Michael Coffee of Shy Rabbit Contemporary Arts in Pagosa Springs, CO, and with Dan Welden in Santa Fe, NM. I have exhibited throughout the U.S., am a grant recipient from the Colorado Council on the Arts, and have been awarded numerous teaching and working residencies in Colorado.
