I am a self-taught artist and started when I was young. I was brought up in Jeffersonville VT, went to 1yr at Johnson State College, and then enlisted in the Army. I worked in Recruiting Support where I learned how to silkscreen, mount and retouch photos. They sent me to Kodak to learn to retouch negatives. I earned a BA in Psychology at Johnson when I returned to VT. My artwork has ranged from drawing and painting different subject matter, carving wood then painting it, painting mushrooms, and making three dimensional art. Creating images from leaves/flowers and painting photos are my latest art endeavors.
