I was born and raised in a small farming
community in west central Wisconsin. Growing up I enjoyed making
"things", primarily of wood. In Milwaukee, Wisconsin I earned a
degree in Engineering that was interrupted by 2 years in the Army.
During my early working years I continued
to work with wood; mostly building some furniture. But, then a
career in the Automotive Industry took most of my time. Looking
for a hobby as I was approaching retirement started some working with
wood crafts and scroll work. I participated in many Art and Craft
Shows for the next several years. Then I began Intarsia.
Intarsia is a 15th century art form started in Italy and is a "Mosaic of
Wood." Many types of wood are used, shaped into pieces, then
assembled to a backing. I have no formal art training but enjoy being a
member of the Art Guild.
Aside from golf, traveling, and
studying spirituality Intarsia takes all of my time.
