GUIDRY, Judge.
The defendant-appellant, Albert Stoner, was convicted of three counts of forgery in violation of LSA-R.S. 14:72. The trial judge imposed a sentence of six years on each count, with the sentences to run consecutively. The defendant appeals asserting that (1) the sentence is unconstitutionally excessive; and, (2) the trial judge failed to adequately state the reasons for imposing sentence as required by LSA-C.Cr.P. Art. 894.1.
