ABOUT THE ARTIST:
As a native of southern Louisiana, my interest in art began in elementary
school. Being the son of an architect, and having worked for him, I was
frequently guided and instructed on the fundamentals of design and the use
of color. For many years, I worked in various areas of the business world,
but I also continued to sketch and experiment with various art mediums. While I enjoyed
painting with pastels, pen and ink, oil, and acrylics, I realized my passion
was for watercolor. With my background in architectural drafting and perspective,
it was natural for me to gravitate to painting landscapes with a particular
interest in buildings. I had been painting in New Orleans for twenty
years but moved to Miami after Hurricane Katrina destroyed my studio in late 2005. As of
March 2012, I have returned to New Orleans.
