I have created work for the past 30 years under various aliases, including: Huey , Weatherby Ornutt,
Romeo Garbonzo and several others. I do this to allow myself to explore different artistic avenues that
are, sometimes, very divergent in my nature. Over the years, these different pseudonyms have truly
developed into real individual characters that drive the type of materials and themes each artist tends to explore.
 

-Huey- is the bad boy of the group. He uses printmaking and/or painting as the medium where he creates
chaotic references to major artworks in history, classic sci-fi movies of the 1950's and 1960's or classic literature. His work features two animated rocket characters  that usually have something to do with the works chaotic nature.
 

-Weatherby Ornutt - makes his art from discarded materials. His work has socially or ecologically motivated themes.
He uses found objects and collages in his sculptures and also creates prints made from built up cardboard plates  which are known as collographs. Sometimes he frames the printing plates as well
and displays the plates as artworks in themselves.
 

-Romeo Garbonzo- is a naïve artist. He likes bright, reflective materials, coloring crayons, monoprints and

black velvet paintings. He sometimes makes puppets. His iconic images can be religiously oriented or simple homages to Elvis. He has a soft spot in his heart for Dodo birds and their sad plight.
 

Sometimes the work created by these various artists blurs into one another but usually that is only temporary.
I do work under my own name. These tend to be straightforward portraits or landscapes in
woodcut or watercolor. The portrait series is the most recent example.

I am starting a new series of Urban Landscapes in the Oshkosh, Wisconsin area. These will utilize extreme colors and feature some of the less glamourous backstreets and perspectives of Oshkosh.
