Tole Painting Adventures in Alaska

About the Book

After many years, I am still a member of the National Society of Decorative Painters and support them by attending the conventions. I took a look at the pictures of my creations and asked myself what I should do with them. It was at this time that I decided to share them in a book with others. I hope this book inspires you to enjoy painting as much as I do.

About the Author

My love of painting started in about 1970 after I attended a local street fair. I still have the little oil can that inspired me to paint. I took lessons locally, joined the Society of Decorative Painters, and finally was able to attend the conventions. That’s when I started learning. I was born in the Southwest in Bakersfield, California, on a farm and ranch. We raised cotton, cattle, horses, and sheep – the sheep were projects of my brother and me.
