He returned to Fort Hays where he taught Fundamentals of Art and Printmaking while he obtained a Masters in Art. He continued drawing, painting and ceramics through the 11 years he spent teaching fine arts in Kansas at the high school level. Maritime exhibits are on display in San Diego and Long Beach, California and sold at several galleries in Newport Beach.
