"Winterreise" is German. It means Winter's Journey. and it seemed only proper, right here in the middle of Decemeber, to create this black and white image of a train plunging into a unknown ahead. The rows of trees, denuded of all foliage, appear like they want to reach down and restrain the rushing train locomotive. Part of the feeling of menace comes from not seeing what lies beyond the curve on the left. Well, of course, this is all highly irrational. The train will get us to the station safe and sound.

Chuck's creative background is wide and varied. He was a professional violinist, a published author, a multilingual graphic designer, a community college teacher, a Lutheran (ELCA) pastor, and a book designer (interior and covers). As a result, his work could be broadly categorized as digital art. His graphic design influences his digital art; and his digital art has features of his design work. In other words, they overlap. Someone put it this way: "What you do is not traditional art, and it isn't strictly graphic design. It's somewhere in-between." Chuck says he couldn't have said it better.
