Surrounded by Trees, Lakes and Rivers. I live in the outskirts of Boise, Idaho in the small town of Eagle.
Having left my many years as a design engineer - designing under water devices looking for submarines - I have moved on now but still working. I recently designed the Pilates Wundaformer for Amy's Pilates Studios in Studio City, Ca. I now have a few more fun projects in the works.
I have always loved photography. I sold my first piece of art when still in high school using my home made enlarger.
In the small town of Leona Valley where I lived for 40 years I was a contractor and built a few homes and a restaurant which is still thriving. It is now a Mexican restaurant serving millions of dinners as the years have gone by. A mural I painted still hangs on the wall over the dining room.
JoAnn’s Iris Garden was my latest discovery here in Eagle.The garden was in full bloom. It was like stepping into a different world to see, smell, feel and walk through a forest of iris - a sensual experience. Jo Ann graciously allowed me to take hundreds of pictures and upload them to this wonderful artist site.
This is a place to finally show the art I have created over the years, a place where others can see and enjoy and even occasionally purchase for themselves one of my pieces.
I've also written and published a few novels: “Arbitrary Murder” and “Magnumforce Truck.com” and soon to be published “Fatal Cruise,”. a fictionalized story about the Costa Concordia ship that capsized in Italy. My books are available from Amazon.
My wife Linda and I have found this marvelous part of the world to live in. We love the land of trees and water while moving through three seasons.
Thanks for visiting me here at Fine Art America.
