As you view my art, whether it
is watercolor paintings, metal
sculptures, or photographs
I hope you discover new
facets about the subjects I
have portrayed. While
mainly executing in a real-
istic style, I use my own
personal interpretation
and expression.

Bonny Doom Beach in Spring

Spring adds a new dimension
to the beach. With colorful
fields of wild flowers and birds
singing, the coastal land
becomes a stunning contrast
to the rugged high cliffs and
sea. The purple flowers are 
seaside daisies and the
yellow flowers maybe wild
mustard.  

When the sea is rough, this
is an excellent place to go
to see the waves crashing
against the marine terraces
at the base of the cliffs.
Between the sound and
height of the sprays it is a very dynamic sight. The marine terraces were once the ocean floor and were
carved flat by the action of the ocean. They were raised above sea level about 10,000 years ago.

A photograph is a wonderful
way to capture a moment in
time. The subject or scene
will change, so you can not
quite photograph it the same
way again. Even when you
take a series of photographs
at one time, they are different.
This aspic of photography is
what makes us try over and
over again to take that perfect
picture. Working digitally to
enhance a photograph can be
a very creative endeavor, it
maybe only slight changes
and cropping or quite involved.

Tulips are beautiful subjects to photograph. In this photograph I had a pleasant surprise when I opened it on the
computer and saw how the camera had caught the shot. The tulips in the background were caught softly making
them a nice contrast to the front three tulips.  As you look at the picture you see more and more of the other tulips. 

Orca-fp.jpg




The Orca is first made with steel welding
rods with more steel welding on to give it
the smooth look.  The structure that
holds up the orca and creates a place to
lead solder the stain glass is made of steel
rods.  The whole steel sculpture was then
zinc plated so that the stain grass
surround with zinc cane could then be
soldered to the steel rods that created
the waves.



The Marine Mammal Center, a non-profit rescue and rehabilitation hospital for injured, sick, and orphaned marine mammals is located in Sausalito, California.  It uniquely combines rehabilitation with reseach and education. I have been volunteering at The Marine Mammal Center since January 2000. Part of proceeds from this site will go to The Center. If you would like to get more information about The Marine Mammal Center, become a member, or a volunteer please follow the link below.
