If you’re looking for my personal website, you’ve found it!

Welcome, and I’m glad you’re here. I created this website to share artwork and content that is not directly related to my business. This is just for fun. I’m launching this site with images of my artwork and a blog series about bike trails in Plano. Later, I will post some recipe ideas, art videos, and maybe a series about Stoic philosophy. I’ll also post my latest paintings here. Please enjoy, and feel free to share your comments and ideas for topics. I appreciate your time, interest and notes. Below is a little bit about me, just in case you’re interested.
