Watchwolf Creations is the result of a dream. Not the kind you have when you're sleeping, the kind you have in your heart. I've always wanted to be able to express my creativity and have always had an affinity for wood and for painting. But my career took a very different path.

I joined the Air Force at the  young age of 17. For over 20 years I worked on aircraft computer and navigation systems. When I retired I continued that sort of work with a defense contractor in computers. From there to the hospital in La Grande, Oregon and from there to the Pasadena Public Library. It was there I had finally found a place I felt was close to my real nature and where I felt at home. And it was there that I began to explore my artistic side.

Wolf Prints were the result. I had always wanted to paint since childhood. But I was never satisfied with the result. Being a perfectionist, it was never "good enough." But when my work at the library introduced me to computer art programs I knew I had found my medium, the perfect match between my affinity for computers and my talent as an artist.

My first Wolf Print as a sketch of the Library. From there I tried several different styles and settings. My wife and associates loved them. Many said "You know, you could sell these." I was skeptical but decided to give it a chance. Watchwolf Creations was born.

We moved from Pasadena to Klamath Falls in Oregon and from there to Chiloquin after building a house there. While the house was being built I found Manzanita plants that had been growing on the property. I was fascinated by the natural art of the plant. It occurred to me that one piece would make the perfect walking stick. While working on that I thought no, this should be a cane. And so Wolf's Wood Art came to be. After several pieces came out of the wood again my friends and family said I could sell these. And so I did. Much to my surprise, successfully.

Since then Watchwolf Creations has enjoyed many successes as I continue to grow and explore new areas of art. Check out the News and Events section for up-to-date information about where you can find the opportunity to see Watchwolf Creations for yourself.
