I worked in Advertising for seven years.  I was then an art teacher and Department Head for 30 years.  I wrote a Course of Study for the Art Department emphasizing learning through dealing with practical problems and studio projects.

In my painting, I strive to include the basics of Design and Composition in my paintings.  I find that many paintings I see are in perfect clarity from foreground to background.  It is impossible for a painting to be in total clarity from foreground to background.  Consequently, I try to include atmosphere in my paintings;  creating curiosity.

I include all the seasons in my landscapes, combined with a bit of abstraction to avoid the triteness of a pretty picture.  I also prefer to leave a painting unfinished.  I then go back after looking at it for several days and then finish it.  This helps to analyze my work and make changes to practice what I preach.

I am a graduate of the Ontario College of Art and the University of Toronto, Fine Arts and a prominent exhibitor in several art associations.
