I graduated with a BA in fine arts from Wartburg College in 1974.  After graduating from college I moved to the Tri Cities from Iowa in the mid seventies and worked for a construction company at Washington Power System before working at Battelle for more than 30 years.  After retiring,  I picked up paint brushes  to see if I remembered how to use them.  My intention is to donatethe profits to local charities.  My acrylic paintings are my interpretations of pictures that I have taken both in this area and from travels.
