Art is but one achievement...


For most of my life I have been very technically oriented, many years of electronics study in high school, then mechanical engineering at the University of Detroit Mercy.  Throughout my my life I have been an avid fan of space exploration, science, quantum physics and such, so much so that I now have most all of Einsteins writings in my library.  After being diagnosed with MS in 1995 I felt the need to take my life in a less stressful direction.  That direction was art and photography.  So my last position as an aerospace engineer came to an end in 2009 and I now use my engineering talents creating some of my more technically complicated art pieces.  And having fun doing it!  Below is a list of past and present achievements, both technical and artistic.


As I can I will add the links to the list below, most of the creative writings are on my karldenton.blogspot.com site.
