Though my role as Designer/Artist in Residence for the Telluride Film Festival has taken me far into the realm of environmental design, I remain, at heart, a painter and a musician with a lot of other interests.  I try not to define my output by category or genre, but to approach all my varied exploits with a personal creative philosophy which is the common thread that runs through what may appear to be very different fabrics.  When, in other aspects of my life, I can engage in the kind of creative exploration that I find accessible through painting and music, then theater design, photography, landscaping or cooking all begin to feel like art made by the same artist, and my work on earth seems cohesive and whole.
