Recent self portrait.

I am a poet, visual artist, and librarian. I’m on a break from pursuing my MFA to spend more time with my parents as they navigate aging and its related problems.

I share my life with Huckleberry (comic relief) and my wife Anya, a public school teacher. After living in over 20 towns/cities in 10 states, I’ve settled in a small town in the smallest state.

The above painting is a self portrait (2010) with my dog, Henry who has now moved on. I made a lot of art featuring him as a buddha. He played a very important role in my life as both spiritual advisor and magical healer.
