About this user
I am the artist who is known worldwide for painting space art with millions of volts of electricity. Among other honors, my work decorated the Enterprise, on Star Trek - The Next Generation. I live in the countryside now, after many intense decades in the city. I started as an artist in my hometown of San Luis Obispo, then at 18 went on the road to be with the Beats in San Francisco's North Beach in the 60's where I was friends with many artists and entertainers just getting our starts in the artworld. In the 70's I worked and lived in Marin County, in San Rafael, in a huge studio, where I did over two hundred tv shows and from where I launched countless showings of my paintings worldwide.
