Born on the midwestern frontier of Omaha, this artist has spent a lifetime immersed in the language of form and color. Early exposure to the rhythms of urban and rural landscapes taught a patient attention to light, texture, and the way surfaces can carry memory. Over decades, the practice expanded from hands-on studio work to teaching and collaborative projects that encouraged others to see through their own interpretations. The work reveals a steady curiosity about everyday scenes, inviting viewers to pause and observe the quiet details that often go unnoticed. A thoughtful contributor to local cultural life, the artist remains focused on exploring expressive potential through a disciplined studio practice.
