NATIVE OF CALIFORNIA SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY. LIFELONG ARTIST, NATURALIST, AND ENVIRONMENTAL ADVOCATE. SELF TAUGHT IN THE RENDERING OF IMAGES ON PAPER, STUDIED AND PRACTICED ARTISTIC STYLES, AND TECHNIQUES IN CALIFORNIA, SOUTHWESTERN UNITED STATES, JAPAN, AND MEXICO. I NOW RESIDE AND PRACTICE MY WORKS ON PAPER IN BUTUAN CITY, MINDANAO, PHILIPPINES. MY WORK IS MOSTLY IN THE HANDS OF PRIVATE COLLECTORS IN THE UNITED STATES, MEXICO,AND SOUTHEAST ASIA. IT IS MY DESIRE TO STIMULATE ARTISTIC ENDEAVOURS IN NORTHERN MINDANAO, AND ASSIST YOUNG ARTISTS EXPOSE THEIR WORK TO SOUTHEAST ASIA, AND THE WORLD. MY ONLY PHILOSOPHY CONCERNING ART IS THAT IT BE EYE PLEASING OR INTERESTING, AND THOUGHT PROVOKING. MUCH OF MY WORK TENDS TO BE ORIENTALIST IN NATURE,AND ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISTIC. |
