Many of the art teachers that I have met through the years — in grade school, at college, and beyond — are funnily rigid. I present a challenge to most of them. I do what I want artistically. I like exploring the act of creation. The teacher may have methods and goals, but these often are contradictory to my own. What I do not want to do is explore my feelings and then talk to a group about them. I want to create art. The creative process itself is therapeutic. Just let me do my art.

Born in Iowa, I now live in Seattle. My parents met in South Dakota. During the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl many families left. My great uncle made his way west in 1939 with some of his hometown friends. Their destination was Anacortes, Washington, where they'd landed jobs building a log mill. My great uncle continued to Seattle, for a time living in the Greenlake neighborhood with a family from that same hometown.
