It never occurred to me that one day I might travel as an artist and writer. Indeed, until 1991 it was hard to imagine I would travel that much at all.
I can remember as a teenager possessing a strong urge to see the country. I actually thought being a truck driver might be a path for me just for this reason.
At 15 years old there’s some logic to that, right?
I finally hit the road in 1991, not as a truck driver but as a college graduate from MA heading to CA for graduate school. That cross-country trip was the first scratch to my itchy feet.
Since then, I have been intently focused on drawing as I travel to document the landscapes and capture in graphite, ink, and/or watercolor the flora and fauna I meet along the way.
This 3-minute video captures a bit of my story in a visual format. Have a look and let me know what you think.
