About Me

I was born and raised in southeast Wyoming.  Received a B.S. degree in Range Management from the University of Wyoming in 1994.   I am basically self taught regarding art; having participated in only a couple painting workshop experiences.  The inspirations for my paintings come from my love of Wyoming's wide open spaces, agriculture, mining and railway industries, hunting and fishing, and the western way of life in general.
