Welcome!
I treasure design work and teaching for the some of the same reasons that I do painting and collage. All engage a process of discovery and an opportunity to understand how people think and why we create.
The freedom of play in collage and painting influence a sense of experimentation in my design process; while the conceptual necessity of design filters into my art projects.
I started doing collage work in 2012. My 30+ years of design skills come into play as each of these are developed. Everything I know and don’t know finds its way into this work. You could say it’s where I find my soul. Or you might call it a search for balance and truth. Either way, maybe there is something here you connect to.
I am interested in Design for the Social Good. Specifically, I am engaged in work that contributes to a positive impact on social life, greater sense of community and increase in sustainable creative growth. If you need that type of help, please give me a call. I’m all ears.
One of the many reasons why I love to travel is the opportunity to observe culture and nature that I wouldn’t normally get exposed to. Most of my photos are from traveling but some are just outside my back door. I admire photographers like Dave Winogrand who can find patterns mood, movement and unusual juxtapositions behind a lens. Or, the emotional qualities in Diane Arbus’s work. Either way, the feeling that you are right there taking the photo with them is what I find so astonishing.
