Artist's Statement

My desire in designing my artwork is to help people escape their busy schedules and to dream, enjoy, and reflect on their priorities in life.

A lot of my work has been influenced by my desire to assist people in all walks of life. In 1989, I started World Patent Development Company with the focus to invent, design, engineer, develop, fabricate prototypes, and not only have the final product but to have a patent on the invention.

Despite my patents and my artwork being seemingly unrelated, I am constantly drawing inspiration from one of these areas to fuel the creative process in the other. 

I live with my wife Nancy in the county on the edge of Pratt, Kansas. We enjoy everything country living has to offer. The long walks in open pastures, the clouds and sunsets, and the wildlife native to our area continue to inspire my artwork.
