Biography

I have been actively painting part time for the last 7 years. I practiced medicine for 40 years. Thirty-eight of those were spent in Fort Collins as a clinical physician with Associates in Family Medicine, much like medicine painting is an art of insight and observation. A keen eye to detail is often required.

My father enjoyed landscape painting as a hobby. Remembering how he enjoyed his time with a brush developed an interest in pursuing painting. I have been fortunate to study under several local and well as national known artists over the past several years.

Recently retiring from medicine has allowed me to focus on oil painting. I have a love of outdoors. Hiking, fishing and hunting have been great escapes for me. Painting allows me to capture a moment in time and to incorporate the emotional and unique subtleties of the experience.

I am excited to continue my journey in painting, moving on to the next adventure and capture it on canvas.
