Art is an avid reader and an active member of the Coeur d'Alene community. When not hard at work, he enjoys walking, reading English legal history, spending time with his wife and grown children, and doing crosswords. Art plays no golf and cannot be paid to try. He will go bowling before golfing.

Art has argued five cases before the Idaho Supreme Court. Art continues to be fascinated with more complex problems in real property law, State and federal constitutional law, and local issues of many types.
