“My art is about personal mythology.
The unreliable nature of memory. In 1966, I left a fine arts
scholarship at the School of Visual Arts, and enlisted in the army to be a photographer. Five months later I found myself in Vietnam. Some days I’m still there. I work with acrylics, and oil paint sticks, and some- times create art on the computer, creating collages mostly built with photo- graphs I’ve taken and manipulated. Since 1970, I’ve worked in advertising, as a writer, art director and creative director. I’ve recently retired, and now paint full-time.”
