The Aerospace Industry of Southern California went belly-up in 1990 after the Cold War ended. I lost a career spanning 30+ years and at 50+ found myself looking for work, not a pretty sight. In 1993 I found a comfy job in the newspaper industry doing computer color correction and pre-press work.

In 2000, an already fragile back finally gave out and I was forced to retire. I moved to Katy, TX in 2002 and took up Fishing, BeadWeaving, Looming, Chain Maille and Ceramics. I am currently adding Adult Coloring to my interests.

This is what I am doing now, I hope you enjoy looking as much as I enjoy creating!
