Bio:
As an ordained minister as well as an artist my work focuses on the revelatory images of God in nature as well as prophetic images that speak to us as people and culture. I studied art at the University of Illinois and have worked in graphic design, illustration, and cartooning but in recent years have come back toward fine art. My preferred mediums have always been pastels and watercolor but I have recently rediscovered the joy of oils. I tend toward art that includes landscapes and florals, fining inspiration in the work of Georgia O'Keeffe, Van Gogh, and Remington.
