Accomplishments
Over 60 years experience producing, exhibiting and teaching art, design and sculpture. I have also had two businesses of my own. The Peterson Pottery Works was my first and was a top original production studio for 17 years. I’m a gregarious outgoing, some would say a “colorful person “.
Additional Information
It’s true I am a “senior”. I am a senior with no desire to retire or drift into the twilight. I am an active athlete, energetic but still a calm person with a lot of patience. As a working artist my enthusiasm for art, creativity and beauty is contagious.
Also I’m a very good salesperson.
