Artist Statement and Bio
As a contemporary realist, I bring a sense of proportion and light to my canvases. My work embodies a balance of realism and vibrant color that allows the viewer to see everyday objects in a visually interesting and humorous way.
Throughout my life I have studied and taught different types of art. Specializing in Acrylics. Through the years I have owned, operated and exhibited in Galleries and Museums in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Florida and North Carolina. My art is in private and corporate collections throughout the world.
Since 2011 I have been an Artist in Residence for Oceania Cruises. Their ships, the MARINA, RIVIERA, INSIGNIA and the new VISTA have become my floating art galleries where I exhibit my work and teach art classes. Traveling all over the world has allowed me to grow as a person and as a painter. I am so grateful for this wonderful opportunity.
I hope you enjoy your visit.
