I enjoy doing fine art and have been painting and drawing for most of my life. I can work in a variety of media, from oils and acrylics to watercolor, charcoal, pen and ink, or more. My paintings and drawings reflect a dedication to the pursuit of anatomical accuracy, solidity, emotion, and that indelible quality that gives artwork "life". These skills helped me as I created the how-to-draw book, "Drawing Wildlife", due to be published by Watson-Guptill in February 2005. In addition, I greatly enjoy the challenge of drawing stylized, yet believable, animals with plenty of expression and personality. These can be seen in the "Illustration" section below.

Field Sketches
An important part of wildlife art is going out in the field and making sketches from life. Here are some of those sketches as well as studies of found dead animals.
