About Me

Hi, I'm Rob and I've been "altering mud" for over three decades turning piles of dirt into beautiful and functional art.

My friends are all actors, singers, & musicians...which is kind of weird because I can't act, sing, or play a musical instrument...but they all put up with my obvious flaws.

I'm an artist, photographer, lover of dogs, cats and occasionally...people.

I'm very involved in fund-raising for a nonprofit organization and an independent theater company.

In other words a man of no particular single great talent, but rather a man of several minor ones.
