Born in a Mississippi River town, I was raised on the edge of a farming community, made drawings, cardboard spaceships, & was best friends with a dog. In those days my mind was occupied by robots, time-space vortexes, & hours of Thundercats. Many choices along the way where motivated by the absurd, the speculative, narrative opportunities the life of an artist presented.

Returning from a trip to the Cote d'Azur with my wife Mary in 2009, I began work on Fabliaux, exploring the characters of French fabliaux, fairy tales, and folklore with a keen interest in the literary works of author Charles Perrault. From that emerged Le Maistre Chat, a side project heavily influenced by Marcel Duchamp and Man Ray. However, a greater sense of freedom to explore compelled me to engage in a 2011 365 Project. All are made and should be viewed with a sense of humor foremost.
