I was born with a passion to create. I started drawing a very early age and I learned to paint with a variety of mediums while honing my skills throughout childhood. My family moved a lot from one end of the country to the other, and I often attended two or three different schools on any given year. Fortunately, pencils and paper where easy to pack.
At age 14, we finally settled in the Oregon City area (near Portland, Oregon) for a few years.
There, I discovered the airbrush and other art mediums while further developing my drawing and photography skills. Then off to Phoenix for a few years 18-22.
In the Spring of 1983, I met the love of my life, Kathryn. We married in December of that same year. The next year we moved to Oregon together.
