I spent my early life being an average boy who liked to draw. Through school I found myself drawing custom cars, cartoons and things that interested me. At the age of 22, three friends gave me a set of oils that opened a new world for me. I've donated numerous waterfowl works to Ducks Unlimited. In 1979 I was honored as Artist of the Year for the Louisiana Wildfowl Carvers Guild. In 1983 I was named Artist of the Year is Mississippi by Ducks Unlimited. You may find my work collected locally as well as throughout the southeast. I've illustrated whimsical outdoor literature and wildgame cookbooks as well as a collection of outdoor stories by Mississippi writers "The Magnolia Club" by Robert Hit Neal. My work has been published in Mid-South magazines, Ducks Unlimited, The Mississippi Game and Fish and Outdoors in Georgia. I continue to record southern outdoor landscapes along the Mississippi River that may be vanishing before our eyes.
