| Introduction | I am now living in Santa Fe having just moved from Easton, Md. I have been an artist and have taught art most of my adult life. I retired from college teaching in 1989 and have been teaching privately, painting and working with a number of arts groups since retirement. I am past president of the Annapolis Watercolor Club, Washington Watercolor Society and founder of the Friday Morning Artists in Shepherdstown, WV and Easton, MD. and the Tidewater Arts Center. I have acted in a dozen films, directed a number of plays and taught improvisational acting. My interest in the visual arts has centered on abstract work and art theory for the past 20 years. I have owned and operated two galleries and, in 2001, married Ann Sharp who is also an artist. I am new to the art scene in Santa Fe and just beginning to get involved in the visual arts here. |
