I use the flotsam and jetsom of the city of San Francisco to create art that draws you into a world not of this world. Found paint and board, used to make something from nothing. I went to San Francisco public schools when art was an important part of the learning experience. Played drums in the seminal SF punk band "VKTMS" from 1978-present, visual partner in the light show "Brotherhood of Light". Over a decade of participation in Artspan San Francisco, donations to Hospitality House , Coalition of the Homeless and Visual Aid have informed my artistic journey.
