After moving to Humboldt County I took classes with local artists from whom I still find inspiration. I exhibit my watercolors with two other artists; we're billed as Artists3. Recently, I was honored with awards at the Humboldt County Fair in Ferndale, CA and received special recognition from Humboldt Arts Council, and Redwood Art Association.
My 35-year career span moved from aerospace as a draftsman/technical illustrator to private industry as a computer graphics illustrator. Many projects included producing illustrated parts breakdowns (IPBs) of portions of the Northrop F-5 and Douglas DC-9 for publication, layout and design of schematic/logic drawings for printed-circuit boards, and cartography for the Oceanics Division. As a computer graphics illustrator in commercial business I enjoyed working on a wide variety of artwork including sales and marketing presentations, marketing brochures for the company products, and in-house publications.
