I began formal training in the aerospace industry as a technical illustrator and worked for companies from California to Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, AL. After graduating from Auburn University I eventually became Vice President of Marketing and Sales for RSG, Inc. an outstanding international process equipment company. During this period fine art was a passionate hobby and I developed representation at several art galleries. In 1998 I along with my three brothers were published in SouthWest Art and soon afterward I began the full time pursuit of fine art.
