About Me

An American painter living in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. I started painting on my first deployment when my wife hid a set of watercolors in my gear.

Interests

• Military officer
• Daddy
• husband
• painter
• writer
• but not necessarily in that order. Trying to love my neighbor and treat others the way I'd like to be treated
• and falling short in just about every way imaginable. Watching my son and daughter grow via internet video connection
• trying to encourage my wife (she works a lot harder than I do
• especially while I'm deployed.) Hunting feral hogs and fishing for anything that's biting. (Well
• not here in Saudi Arabia
• but I will when I get home.) Writing stories and painting landscapes. Did I mention watching my kids grow?

Favorite Movies
