Living in Pacific Norhtwest for most of my adult years, I have established a niche in the art community as a painter of contemporary realism. A significant body of my work showcases Oregon's diverse architectural styles, especially bridges. My technique mimics the old masters but embraces a contemporary sensibility and ambience through careful and expressive brushstrokes. I enjoy building dramatic perspectives in my paintings of the bridges, and I strive to deliver unusual points of view that render exciting realistic and abstract portrayals. I am also well-regarded for my portraiture, images of working heroes, and figurative work stylistically depicted in modern realism.
