Born in Cummington Massachusetts, Frank grew up playing cowboys and Indians. His own mother used to say that Frank was born one hundred and fifty years too late. Frank just always loved old stuff. In an effort to live out his boyhood dream, he initially migrated to Colorado. After a period, he moved on to New Mexico to pursue his artistic talents.

Frank has now retired to live full time near family in Texas. In his lifetime, Frank successfully designed and produced Native American inspired jewelry, photographed wildlife, built and competed with Benchrest rifles, wrote technical articles for shooting magazines, designed Southwestern inspired furniture, and did a little painting.

Frank's hard art began in New Mexico while living near the Santa Fe area and is a direct reflection of his childhood fantasies and adult experiences. He has always been fascinated by American Indian culture and ways. Many of his designs and art use the drawings of petroglyphs created by the prehistoric residents around his New Mexico home. He has devoted countless years in museums and books doing research. Frank is a completely self taught artist.

When not wandering the deserts, reservations, and mountains in search of previous inhabitants and their ruins, he can be found in his studio going over photographs and sketching Native American designs to incorporate into his art work. Frank's art is dramatic in design, execution, and beauty. His art of the Native American people and their ways is a direct effort to honor and preserve the traditions and culture of the Southwest and it's inhabitants.
