About Me

I was raised in Phoenix Arizona and Portland Oregon. I've lived in France for 2 years while serving a mission. After I was married in 2004 I've lived in California, Nevada, and Idaho. I am presently living in the Portland Oregon area. I am happily married with two sons.


I have a degree in Art Education from BYU Idaho. Following graduation while I was working on the qualifications for my teaching license I got a job as a UX/graphic designer at a Small company. I'm really enjoying this new career path and the new perspective I'm acquiring as I solve different kinds of aesthetic challenges with different tools.

I enjoy all things art and I'm hoping to employ various mediums for this blog. I will be using high quality materials and archival practices unless otherwise noted. I will also be posting images that I like from the public domain.
