About the Artist
"As an advocate of the Yampa Valley Crane Festival, I’m honored and challenged to have the opportunity to paint a yard art crane. It’s a great creative exercise in jumping “out of the box” - no matter what you do in life plus I’m contributing to a wonderful cause. I look forward to featuring more famous artists on the Yard Art Cranes!"
