Description: Born in 1960 in Sanford, Florida, Lance grew up in and around the ocean due to his father's career in the U.S. Navy. Surfing, sailing, and other ocean sports kept him in the water and led to his first job. At age 15, Lance joined the American Red Cross Volunteer Life Saving Corp as a lifeguard in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. His other great passion has always been a desire to express the beauty of the world around him. His mother recalls a time when at age 5, he ran in to draw on the chalkboard, the sun's rays he'd seen beaming through the clouds. This same passion is evident in his work today.

After high school, Lance attended the Ringling School of Art in Sarasota, Florida, where he received fundamental training that laid the foundation for his career as a fine artist. He then spent a short time working on the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico, rebuilt a sailboat that had been destroyed by a hurricane, and finally, after learning to air brush, moved to St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands for two winters. There he lived with a friend in "The Dolphin House", a site of early research in dolphin intelligence.

Always in search of new adventures and better surf, Lance and his brother, Rory, were drawn to Hawaii. He was captured by the beauty, the friendly aloha spirit of the people, and the excellent surf of the Hawaiian islands. He and his brother then started "Ocean Lines Hawaii", a successful surf wear company. It was also at this time that Lance met and married his wife, Letitia, who hails from Hong Kong. By 1991, they had their first child, Alexis, and the following year, James.

In 1995, Lance accepted Jesus Christ as his savior. This transforming experience led him to realize that his gifts as an artist were meant to express God's unconditional love.

"As with all artists, my work is a reflection of who I am. My relationship with God has shown me how blessed I am and that my gifts have a purpose. It is my greatest hope to share the love, peace, and joy that I now possess in Christ Jesus."
