Former psychologist has studied art at ccsf as well as several independent studios including formerly Leighten studios, 23rd street studios in S.F, BACAA in San Carlos and several other independent teachers. I am currently focusing on oil landscapes.

In this series of eight large allegorical paintings entitled: Once Upon A Time,” the first painting in the series is related to myself as a three year old dreaming atop puffy clouds high above the bleakness of the depression. A large Old Mother Goose book is open to a picture and rhyme: “Ride a cock horseto Banbury Cross.”  The book itself, published in 1926, was given to me in Bellevue, Nebraska at age three. The book and its rhymes have nailed down the eight epochs of my life, allegorically alluding tosocial and political commentaries as I recall them.
