I live in Meridian, Idaho. I’m married to my best friend, Laura. We have 4 great kids all grown and out on their own. When I’m not working, I like to paint wildlife and landscapes using oils and acrylics. I also enjoy photography and gather most of my reference material for my paintings using a digital Pentax K20 DSLR camera. I’ve recently begun to experiment with Photoshop Elements 8.
You’ll find original art done in oils and acrylics, photography (digital and traditional), and some enhanced photography using Paint Shop Pro and Photoshop Elements.

Please check back often for updates and additions.
Hope you enjoy. Your feedback is certainly welcome!
