ARTIST STATEMENT: I have worn so many hats throughout my career in the visual arts that it鈥檚 hard to know where to start. But the end is not near, that鈥檚 for sure. Beginning in 1969, I had thoughts of becoming a pilot and a photographer, Any longings I had to fly commercially as an airline pilot went out the window with massive furloughs in the airline industry. After several career direction adjustments and switching my major several times, I wound up majoring in clay and sculpture, painting and photography. A
mix to say the least. This exhibition underscores a path, not always straight and narrow. Some would argue 鈥渦nfocused.鈥 But I beg to differ. There is a train of thought here and you, the viewer, might figure it out. I hope you do. Glimpses is just that: several pieces that 鈥渟urfaced鈥 in my studio recently so to speak, visually depicting the flow of information, the resulting expression, and materialization of many of life鈥檚 experiences as they have been cataloged in the culmination of my life so far.
