| Welcome to my website. I hope you enjoyed your visit and the art work. Now a little about the artist. I've been painting on the rocks for over twenty years. I started when I worked at a "clown factory" where we painted 24 crt. gold dipped clown figures mounted on mexican marble. I was able to get some marble and just started playing around. I discovered that painting on rock slabs was different and unique. My friends and family started wanting them. That started a need for rocks. I had always been able to find slabs. I started to do the arts & craft shows with a great deal of success. I started slicing the rocks myself and also purchase slabs wholesale. I've been doing shows every year and have numerous clients who collect my work. I'm a self taught artist. I did attend a wildlife art workshop in Montana,with Terry Isaac. Robert Koenke, the publisher of 'Wildlife Art Magazine, commissioned a moose, from me at the workshop (He named the moose Harry) I'm a member of WAA ( wildlife artist association.) I have painted hundreds of rock painting of every animal you can think of. I don't paint people, that much, Only if I don't paint the face. I can and do paint on canvas, pastels, watercolors. I love to do custom work. I find it very challenging and gratifying to see how well I can capture the animals true personality and charactor. My clients love the work. You can order any animal you like, your pets, wildlife you collect. They make great gifts for the one who has it all. All I need are a few real good photos of the face and body. The better the photos, the easier it is to gain the full character of the subject. If you would like more info, please e-mail Thank You for your time and interest.....Artist and wildlife enthusist.
