ABOUT

I live and work in the historic Haight Ashbury neighborhood in San Francisco, California, where I operate a multidisciplinary art and design studio, art factory, detritus rescue, benevolent society and good ideas association. With a wink at the future and a nod to the past, I am inspired in the present.

The first decade of my career was spent as an itinerant artist, travelling and teaching background scene painting techniques for numerous movie and television productions in film and animation studios worldwide.

Following that introduction to the world of commercial art, I began working with international architects and designers and public art commissions creating murals, sculptures and site specific artworks for corporate, public and residential clients.

Designs reflecting my love for pattern, nature, nostalgia, and the exotic, have been licensed for use on textiles, apparel, paper products, ceramics, banners, puzzles, toys, home accessories, and fine art prints.

I’ve exhibited paintings and assemblages in group shows curated by Christopher Brown, Misch Kohn, Richard Shaw, Henry Hopkins, Rolando Castellon, Inez Storer and George Herms.
