I attended and graduated high school before enrolling in Vancouver Art School. Afterwards, I went to the U.S. to live in North Hollywood, California where I created record album art work for many of the 1970’s soon-to-be famous Rock and Roll bands while also selling and exhibiting my own paintings.

In the late 1970’s, I opened my own art gallery where I had many successful shows in addition to forming a group of artists who’s work was focused on surrealism and fantasy.

Back in Canada I entered the motion picture business by designing sets and props for many big budget hollywood productions; eventually landing a steady job on the television series Stargate.

All through my days of designing and decorating movie and television production sets I yearned to get back to making my own creations; creating my own art through my passion for painting and drawing. Always in the background of my heart and thoughts, I finally told myself, “Enough!”.
