Born in a small town in West Virginia. Move to Cincinnati ,OH at the age of 7 and started painting at the age of 14 while taking mail in courses from the The Art Instruction School. When I entered the United States Marines in 1971, I stopped all art work and did not start again until I retired. Now for the past few years I have returned to Art. I know I have missed a lot but the joy of painting and drawing is still there. I now live in Vacaville, California where here in California there is always something to paint, I have had many of my painting on display at the local Art Gallery ( Vacaville Art League & Gallery).
