"After 36 years of teaching at Wells College one realizes that the
inextricable link and the bond to the institution are deeply rooted in
one's core fiber. After all these wonderful years, it cannot and should
not be considered a job. It is much more. This bond is, in great part,
what has defined me as an artist and as a teacher. Wells College has
allowed me and encouraged me to pursue my career as an artist which has
enabled me to grow as a teacher. When I leave Wells I'll take with me
memories of extraordinary students, committed and learned colleagues,
and years of fulfillment having been a part of a great institution."

I am also equally interested in abstraction as a way of painting. I love the pure sensual qualities of painting materials and that combined with the challenge of making a visual statement with only color, shape and surface texture or surface movement is an exciting proposition for me. I also feel that the best realism in painting is invariably abstractly conceived and constructed. Education Galleries and Museum Exhibitions Courses Taught
