Typography, color and texture.  Is there really anything else? I mix up in a smoothy these three elements because I have to do something. This technique has plagued me since 2002 to help people to see art in their life that they miss. (but don’t realize it.)

I received my BFA in Graphic Design / Visual Communication from Kansas State University where they got rid of me in 1999.  Post college I worked as a designer for Hallmark Cards where I met the most talented people on earth – no shit. Inspired everyday, I couldn’t stop layering paper and paint and have been living this life of texture and sharing it with the masses ever since.

Just moved back June 2022 to Cincinnati, Ohio with my loving wife and 2 beautiful children despite their contempt for parents. (teenagers now.)
