| The San Francisco Bay Area is my orginal home. Having spent most of my youth in a city south of San Jose, I moved inland to the Sacramento valley where I earned separate undergraduate degrees in Studio Art and Art History from the University of California at Davis. Studying with Wayne Thiebaud and Squeak Carnwath had a significant impact on the development of my art. After graduating from UC Davis and a stint living in San Francisco, I relocated to New York City, where I earned a Masters of Fine Arts degree from the School of Visual Arts. Since then, my art has been exhibited nationally and internationally. Recent solo exhibitions include Conduit Gallery, Crass Cruel and Uncouth, Dallas, Texas and Studio 107, True Fictions, Austin, Texas. Currently I am an Associate Professor of Art at the University of North Texas. I am also a regular contributor to ArtForum Online, Flash Art, ArtNews, New York Arts Magazine and Artlies. |
