Enrolled in the art program at Sacramento State. Emphasis was on commercial art with DeWitt Whistler Jayne, a nationally known illustrator, portrait painter, and art director. Tarmo Pasto, an art psychologist and art instructor, was also an important influence. After college I taught art at Elk Grove High School, Los Rios Correctional Center, and various adult education programs. Currently live in Hughson, California with my sweet wife Glenda, Daughter Melissa, Precious the cat, and sister Sadie the Dog.
