A More Perfect Union America Becomes a Nation (VHS/DVD video)
On the back cover of this DVD it states: "America, 1786. Ten years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. England wages a new war of unfair trade and tariffs. Bickering and jealousy fracture the once united states. But a handful of brilliant men, James Madison, George Washington, and Benjamin Franklin, lead a political battle to create a new form of government, one that will establish the standard of self-government to the world. A More Perfect Union: America Becomes A Nation is the first comprehensive recreation of those stirring, heated debates during the sweltering summer of 1787. Filmed on location at Independence Hall, Williamsburg, Virginia, and other historical sites, it dramatically chronicles how America became a nation and those underlying principles that guard our freedoms today."

Autumn Heights (Painting)
From the Artist: "This scene comes from a dream I have of a place high in the mountains. This hidden lake is fed by clear water from the highest peaks. It is Autumn and the tree colors are at their height of glory. The smell of the cool autumn air and the sounds of a distant waterfall calm my senses. This is what I call Autumn Heights."

Canyon Depths (Painting)
From the Artist: "I wanted this to be the kind of painting that had many levels of depths of focus leading your eye into the distance. I imagined this deep canyon hidden away somewhere in the frontier of the southwest. Wild horses graze peacefully at the edge of a pool of water. Come and visit my intimate corner of the "Canyon Depths."

Grand Canyon Majesty (Painting)
From the Artist: "Every time I see the Grand Canyon it takes my breath away. In this painting I wanted to create the drama of light and color and space which makes the Grand Canyon so inspiring. In the distance, the 'Buddha Temple' looms above the canyon horizon. You can see the Colorado River slowly winding it's way between the cliffs. I also thought it was an effective addition to have the lone eagle soaring among the cliffs into the canyon below. What a marvelous place!"

Mountain Cascades (Painting)
From the Artist: "I often have envisioned this scene of warm light gently cascading down the mountainside and into the cool waters below. I can almost hear the sound of water falling into the quiet pool at my feet. I have seen places like this as I have traveled, but they are always more beautiful in my mind's eye. My senses are alive with the feeling of the warm light and cool waters in my painting of a Mountain Cascade."

Teton Majesty (Painting)
From the Artist: "How does one describe the Teton Mountains without using the word majestic? In this painting I tried to capture the rose-colored morning sunlight as it plays across the Teton range. It's the best time to do a little fishing, you know. A grandfather and his grandson are throwing in a line to test their luck. They don't realize they have a visitor."

Timpanogos Shadows (Painting)
From the Artist: "I always am struck with the beauty of Mt. Timpanogos in Utah Valley, and cannot count the times I have looked up at it and said to myself, 'someday, I am going to paint this!' One morning, I was driving along the old highway and saw the morning light creating those shadows, which are so distinctive to 'Timp.' I thought how impressive it must have been 150 years ago to those who settled this valley. Beneath the shadows of this magnificent mountain, many generations have found a place of peace and comfort. I finally did what I had been wanting to do for so long."
