• He is now experimenting with the newest art/printing technologies available; exploring the everyday changing and new directions in the large scale digital realm of art and murals that were ironically developed and financed by many of his original corporate clients. His focus at present is experimenting with using the creative tools of computer software combined with photogaphy, drawing and painting media to create a series of archival prints that catch his imagination and collages printed on a variety of unique media.

He and his wife are only semi-retired because you really can't retire from doing your art. They live in Grants Pass, OR. and are pursuing the more creative areas of art that have always interested them.

It's a great life.
