He has judged numerous regional art competitions, including several Wisconsin Regional Arts Program Exhibits and Plein Air events, and has lectured at many of Wisconsin’s Art Institutions including Wisconsin Painters and Sculptures, Wisconsin Pastel Society, the Waukesha County Arts League, the West Allis Artists Alliance, and the Kettle Moraine Pastel Artists to name a few.
