Scripture Collection
The best stories ever written come directly from the Inspired Word of God. Stories of restoration of sight, heart ache, sacrifice and resurrection, and redemption.
NASA
In the early 1990s I was honored to participate in the NASA art program. By invitation of NASA art director Bob Schulman, I was able to witness and artistically document various aspects of the Space Shuttle program, including Astronaut training, Shuttle launches and landings, Engine testing and early space station planning.
Historical Collection
In recent years I have been fortunate to find clients who share my interest and have commissioned artworks inspired by history and particularly featuring men of great integrity, decency and courage.
Nature
As a boy, my brothers and I would pack our rucksacks with field guides, binoculars, and snacks (of course) and head out for a day of exploring meadows, rivers, and forests. Between excursions, using materials provided by my mother (also an artist), I created drawings and paintings of the animals, birds, and plants we studied.
Journal.
Do you ever wonder about stories behind the paintings? How long does it take to create a painting? Do I use real models and where do I find them. What kind of research is required to create a painting? These are a few of the many questions I have been asked through out the years. I would like to share my thoughts, stories, progress on paintings, and interesting facts with you from time to time with you.
