I worked at the Portland Art Museum in Portland, Oregon, for fourteen years, and exhibited at the museum's Rental Sales Gallery for nearly twenty five years. The museum is now one of the largest in the country and offers visitors to the Pacific Northwest region an opportunity to see some of the greatest art in the world.

I've been teaching at the Multnomah Arts Center in Portland, Oregon, for over twenty years, teaching drawing and painting. MAC has something for everyone and caters to all age groups. They have a print making studio, dance classes, children's theater, yoga for seniors, and a Loaves and Fishes program. MAC is a program of Portland Parks and Recreation.

Miro Lovric is a colleague of mine at the Portland Art Museum. Originally from Bosnia, Miro and his wife Jassena emigrated first to Germany, then to the United States, during the Balkan Wars of the '90's. Miro's art is primarily abstract, sometimes evoking the early twentieth century masters of modernist painting but adding up to his own unique style.

The Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas, Texas, is dedicated to promoting the legacy of President John F. Kennedy, and includes a collection of art and artifacts related to his assassination. The museum is located in what was formerly the Texas School Book Depository, where Lee Harvey Oswald allegedly fired from a sniper's nest. I donated my large triptych of Kennedy's assassination to the museum in 2020, and it will appear in a special exhibition at the Sixth Floor that is currently being planned for 2027.

The mission of the Oregon Art Center (formerly the Oregon Society of Artists) is to promote the visual arts in Oregon and Southern Washington, with educational and exhibition opportunities for artists in those areas. OAC was founded in 1926 and continues to play a vital role in our regional arts scene. I have been teaching diverse classes at OAC, including a class for Veterans, since 2021.

I donated my painting 'The Assassination of President Kennedy" to the Sixth Floor Museum in 2020. This interview with Sixth Floor Museum Curator Stephen Fagin, recorded in February, 2021, details how the concept for the painting came to be and other details pertaining to my personal interest in the JFK legacy.

The link leads to a gallery talk I did at the Sixth Floor Museum with head curator Stephen Fagin on August 29, 2025. The talk was part of a series in the museum's special exhibit, 'Colorful Memories--November 22 Through A Child's Eyes.' The participants in these talks were, like me, children at the time of JFK's assassination and had personal stories of that time which significantly impacted their lives.
