Art and creating, especially in three dimensions (sometimes four) has been a lifetime passion for me. I was intrigued as a child by the drawings of Rube Goldberg and often rigged up my bedroom (much to my mother’s frustration) with elaborate schemes to turn off the light switch from my bed at night and rigging up burglar alarm systems in my bedroom. Later on as a student at San Jose State College, I was exposed to the San Francisco Funk Art movement of the late 1960’s and early 1970’s thanks to one of my college professors, David Zack. Always in the background, was my admiration of and obsession with Dutch artist Hieronymus Bosch who’s works I became aware of when I was 13 and have guided me ever since.
