CV
Some notable exhibits that my work has appeared in are: The Salmagundi Club in NYC, the Corcoran Gallery in Washington D.C., Rocky Mountain Watermedia, and several other West Coast exhibitions.
My obligations as Director of Jasper Arts Center unfortunately left little time for exhibiting recently. However, I am remedying that since I’m back painting full time the past three years.
