Even though life has been busy, things have been going well for me. I have been married to my lovely wife Deidra for almost a year and a half now. We live in Santa Cruz these days. I am in the city weekly for work to meet with clients. I recently left my "over the hill" job to start up my own creative consulting company. I am making art more than I have in a long time and have incorporated my art knowledge into my consulting business. I am looking to have a show in the city this year. I will be involved with the Santa Cruz open studios at the end of summer. The ocean has been good to me in the form of surf. Between Moss and OB, I have found slopes that cater to both my lay-down and upright wave riding techniques. I may try to sneak a trip to Indo late summer... If you want to see any of my new art check out my new website at ascstudio.com. Cheers.
