After which, he furthered his training at Bridgewater State College, studying to become a High School Art Teacher.

His images of dilapidated barns, vivid mountain scapes, fields, streams, and seascapes continue to be the subject matter of his artwork. His paintings and drawings are on display in many private and corporate collections, along with art galleries/gift shops throughout the United States, Germany, and France among others.
