I am an artist with a studio in Dallas, Texas. I work in digital imaging, collage and mixed media. My influence is geometric abstraction and industrial art between the wars. I'm interested in design, color and texture. My work often contains a combination of technical, scientific and natural images. Whimsey is an important element of my work.

My photographic digital images are of urban landscape from large and small cities. I have been photographing more people lately, especially at art openings and in a self-portrait loo series. Many of my digital images end up as collage elements in my mixed media paintings.

Art Exhibits and News

I am developing new media computer and electronics based art. It's been fun to write some code again and heat up the soldering iron. I call the first projects Kinetic Percussion, self-contained electro-mechanical sculptures that play rhythm patterns. I've had a very positive response from the new work.

I now have two photographs in the collection of the Illinois State Museum in Springfield, Illinois, my hometown. I used to ride my bicycle to the museum when I was a kid. I'm proud to be a part of the museum.

Pan, Can, Bam!, my latest Kinetic Percussion. I'm editing a video of it which will be posted soon. It flashes lights and plays a drum patterns on found and made objects. The response has been very positive.

The work was in the Texas Sculpture Assoc. juried exhibit at the Plano Art Centre in November and will be at Williams Tower in January for the Assistance League of Houston exhibit. The Houston show was juried by Robin Clark, Curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego.
