Cleo Curtis had retired and they wanted a new personality to head up their educational program. I joined the Duncan team in 1983 as Educational Consultant. This endeavor, among other things, included writing the Seminar Program, doing videos for Duncan, and helping to develop the Stoneware Program. I enjoyed that position for 17 years; however, in the year 2000, it was time to move on Currently I am working on my own seminars to teach throughout the world and am writing articles for national magazines. I am educational consultant to the Color Me Mine Contemporary Studios. Additionally, I am in the process of writing two new books, one about airbrushing (to replace the one published in 1982 which is out of print), and another one on the aspects of teaching brushwork.
