I look at each person as a unique “human landscape”. It is important that the portrait releases the personality within. When I am told, “You’ve really captured him/her”, I feel I have successfully fulfilled my assignment. There is nothing worse than to have drawn a nice head and to have missed the true identity of the person. Throughout my commercial art career I have had many portrait assignments and have always enjoyed the challenge of bringing to life the identity and personality of the person.
I believe as an artist that my mission and challenge is to record on paper what God has already created, whether it be a portrait of a person or a landscape of His glorious Creation. My goal is to reproduce His unique creations accurately.
I acknowledge that the real source of my talent, inspiration and accomplishments is the LORD. I have had a personal relationship with Christ since the summer of 1970. I give Him all the glory.
I believe there are many portraits and landscapes that have already been created by God; it will be my privilege and joy to discover and record them for your enjoyment.
I live in Upper Bucks County, Pennsylvania with my wife, Janne. We were married in 1971. We have two wonderful married daughters.
