I started drawing at an early age and was not discriminate about the surface that my pencil found much to the chagrin of my parents as it on occasion started as a wall mural in the hall outside my room. My first professional work came from drawing goalies in Grammar school to support my comic book collection.

It was here that two of my true passions in life met, art and sports. Many happy and fulfilling hours could be spent on a single piece getting every pencil stroke just right as true fulfillment comes from finishing a fine piece that is hopefully enjoyed by other.

I did win several art prizes at the local fairs and top honors for consecutive years in high school. for the most part the teenage years were filled with other activities a youth will
get involved in. For a period my artistic talent was came out through the design of custom, unusual and often funny cakes.

As we age we mature and start to figure out what matters and what brings a peace to our inner self, going back just a few years I rediscovered my love of creating the likenesses of celebrities and sports legend leading up to the last few where I became enamored with my acrylics.

Rarely does a day go by now where I am not working on a portrait a jersey or some other piece that I thought would be interesting and enjoyable. I hope you enjoy my work as much as I do creating it.
