Born in a small, farming community in Illinois, P.T.’s growing up years were spent immersed in the elements of nature. After graduating from college in Iowa, a move to Minneapolis is where a love for artistic endeavors first emerged. As a hobby, the future artist started mixing artistic papers, paint and a variety of textural mediums. Through a job promotion, P.T. moved to Southern California. After a successful business career, the artist is devoting full-time attention to the first love of mixing mediums to create bold and harmonious two and three dimensional constructions. Collections of the artist’s work can be found in galleries in Los Angeles, Chicago, Fort Myers, Houston, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Dallas, New York, Raleigh, Charlotte, Omaha, Atlanta and Singapore.
