As an artist and a naturalist, I believe that the natural world deserves mankind's total attention and compassion in it's 'Eleventh Hour'. We are at a crossroads concerning our environment and change must come from within each individual. There are no neutral parties in my opinion. We are all part of the problem, therefore we must all be part of the solution.
It is our responsibility to inform, educate and administer cures to the environmental disasters that besiege us. We must present the ecology of the planet as 'Personal' to first, as well as third, world countries that partake of the Earth's bounty. It must be presented in a manner which makes sense to people. Whether helping save the rainforest or picking up trash along the roadway - all can promote change.
To quote William Drayton, 'Change starts when someone sees the next step'.
I have participated in many prestigious shows including the National Wildlife Art show in Washington, D.C., and have sat on the board of directors of the Nature Arts Organization.
I have also studied with famous wildlife artist, Robert Bateman.
I live in Reading, MA and am in a committed relationship with a wonderful girl who inspires me in so many ways. I have a rich, full life and couldn't have done it without you Mary Jane!!!
