Born in 1946 and raised in a Military family the first 18 years of life. Being sent to live in different parts of the USA and the World presented many various customs, norms and traditions.
I hit the road at 18. Took Fine Art classes at Santa Monica College for 3 years, dropped out for lack of money and worked different jobs eventually becoming a general contractor and owned an ornamental iron shop.
The main thing was to always be true to my love of Art & keep doing it.
I watched and saw the World Change over the many decades. Sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse.
I’d tell you of the Mystic, Magical and Spiritual Things that have happened on my journey through life, but it would take a book to do it and you’d probably never believe them, and, I would totally understand why you couldn’t.

Artworks in painting & sculpture are in collections of many Film Celebrities and a few Music Rock Stars. Nearly all of them that I met are genuinely wonderful people who care about the world and its well being.
