I am a MINNEAPOLIS based artist specializing in watercolor and oil paintings of landscapes, seascapes and figures. Additionally, I am a co-op member of Traffic Zone Center for the Arts and my studio is located in the historic warehouse district of downtown Minneapolis. I've been painting professionally for more than 20 years and teach watercolor for beginners. I've traveled extensively and the inspiration for some of my paintings are reflective of those travels as well as events and observations of every day occurrences. In producing my paintings I attempt to convey an emotion more than a photographic rendering would. My images have been exhibited in Bangkok, Thailand , Mexico and throughout the United States, winning numerous awards in Juried Exhibitions. Many of my paintings are owned by PRIVATE collectors in southern California, Seattle, Washington, Austin, Texas, and in the permanent collections of the Minneapolis Library . I've studied at the Minneapolis College of Arts and Design as well as the Edina, MN Art Center. Additionally, I've studied and painted with one of Northern Mexico's master muralist, Moreno and portrait artist Guillermo Kelly while living in Mexico .

First Baptist Church of Minneapolis, Minnesota was founded in 1853 at Saint Anthony Falls. E.W. Cressey, a missionary with the American Baptist Home Missionary Society, together with members of First Baptist Church of Saint Paul and St. Anthony gathered on March 5, 1853 and committed themselves to organizing a "Regular Baptist Church," the first Church organized in Minnesota Territory west of the Mississippi River.The first permanent home for the Church was at Third and Nicollet, and was the largest meeting hall in Minneapolis. With the rapid growth of the city a larger building was built at 5th and Hennepin in 1857 serving the congregation until the present structure was built in 1885 at 10th street and Hennepin avenue. The building was designed by the firm of Kees and Fisk, which later became the firm of Long and Kees. It is built of Kasota limestone in a blend of the Romanesque and Gothic revival styles. The original steeples were blown down in a 1967 windstorm.William Bell Riley, known as "The Grand Old Man of Fundamentalism," served as pastor of the church for forty-five years (1897 - 1942) and another five as pastor emeritus until his death in 1947.
The State Theatre in Minneapolis, Minnesota is a significant venue in that city.The State Theatre seats 2,181. It opened in 1921 and was considered the most technologically advanced and elaborate theatre in the United States. It was designed by Chicago architect J.E.O. Pridmore in a free Italian Renaissance style and boasted the first well-driven air conditioning system in Minneapolis. The original stage floor was glass, lit from underneath to create stunning visual effects. The opening night program included a silent film, newsreel and travelogue. A Wurlitzer pipe organ was installed in 1925 and concerts were held every day for 25 cents. The State’s neon marquee was installed in the ’40s and runs the entire width of the theatre. Between 1921 and 1978, the State Theatre was used primarily as a movie house, but also hosted vaudeville acts, concerts and ballet. The movie screen was the largest screen west of the Mississippi River at the time. "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" set a national record at the State in 1970 for the longest run in America, and the final picture show was "Tommy" on New Year's Eve 1975.The theatre was built on the site of the first mansion constructed by T. B. Walker in 1874 for his family at 803 Hennepin Avenue. His home stood there for forty years until it was demolished to make way for the theatre complex.From 1978 to 1989, the building was the home of Jesus People Church. The historic exterior State Theater signage was removed and church signage was installed. Interior alterations were also made.The Minneapolis Community Development Agency purchased the LaSalle Plaza block in 1989, including the State, as part of the LaSalle Plaza development. After nearly two years of renovation at a cost of $8.8 million, the State Theatre re-opened in November 1991 with the Minnesota Opera’s production of Carousel. The restored proscenium spans almost the full width of the building and curves 100 feet above the stage. The six chandeliers in the house are original, as are the murals on the walls. Since the re-opening in 1991, the State has hosted live Broadway touring productions such as Avenue Q, Sweeney Todd and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, concerts featuring Patti Smith and Gordon Lightfoot, author and adventure speaker series and films including the world premiere of the Minnesota-based movie, "Grumpy Old Men." The theater was featured in the film "Jingle All the Way" with Arnold Schwarzenegger in 1996. Hennepin Theatre Trust has been the owner and operator of the State Theatre since 2005.
