My painting technique incorporates “old skool” mechanical and civil drafting techniques including ruling pens, Leroy, inking the drawing and then completing it using watercolors, acrylics and gouache. Originals and prints of my watercolors are now part of private collections throughout the United States, and foreign countries.
