I grew up in La Crosse, Wisconsin and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Philosophy from the University of Wisconsin at Madison in 1979. 
In 1984, I graduated from the University of San Francisco 
School of Law and began my legal career. 
Feeling the need to pursue a more creative life, 
I studied drawing and color. 
Eventually, I moved back to the Midwest in 1994 and 
pursued the study of the human figure and then turned my attention to portraits. 
Most recently I studied oil portrait painting under 
world renowned portrait artist, Margaret Carter Baumgaertner.

I delight in painting moments of intimacy and joy.
My favorite subjects are pets and families. 
Works are done in pastel, charcoal, ink, acrylic and oil.

 

My art is about joy and gratitude.

 

BTW, My last name is pronounced like "how" with a "G" at the end.
It's a Norwegian word meaning "hill."
