About

I have spent a lifetime engaged in the act of making—drawn to the quiet when something unseen begins to take form. My path has moved through photography and into painting, each becoming a way to explore what exists just before we become aware—where perception has not yet settled into language or even understanding.

My photographic work created layered exposures from the landscapes of the American Southwest. These images are less about documenting the external world and more about sharing an internal encounter—where light, memory, and presence converge into something experienced rather than described.

Painting allows me to take this path further. In the studio, I work with acrylic and ink in a process that is exploratory and open, guided by memory and allowing marks to emerge with guided spontaneity. Gesture, depth, and atmospheric space are ways I use to approach experience at its earliest stage—before it resolves into recognizable forms.

Across both practices, I am interested in what comes before we understand a thing, and what remains beyond what can be said. My work is not an attempt to define these spaces, but to experience and share them—to give form to the threshold where awareness begins.

Before turning fully toward art, I spent four decades in medicine, an experience that continues to inform my attention, practice, and presence. That background, combined with years of photographic practice and my current focus on painting, shapes a body of work grounded in both observation, experience, and the richness of time.

At its core, my work is about staying with the unknown long enough for something tangible to emerge.

I am based in Parker, Colorado.
