Curriculum Vitae

Born in 1962 in New Haven, Connecticut I attended Paier College of Art where I studied graphic design, illustration, fine art and photography.  I have been an artist all my life, always seeing beauty where it might have been missed by someone else's eye. Even as a small child, I was always imagining, inventing or creating something. Whether it was molding sculptures out of my mother's aluminum foil or coloring simple drawings with crayons, I have always been fascinated with artwork of all kinds.
Since then I have experimented with chalk, crayon, brush, pencil, ink, clay and more. Oil paint became my favorite and that is what I use for my paintings today. I have always had a creative mind and see interesting forms and patterns in everything around me, shapes and colors jump out at me from ordinary scenes turning them into paintings in my mind. My paintings are inspired by simple beauty of light and shadow and enhanced by the way I look at things.
After years of adventures and journeys, I now live in Rhode Island, where I continue to paint, to draw and always to imagine.
