   This site is a culmination of over 40 years of my art experiences. Feel free to take a look at my photo galleries and let me know if I can create a custom piece of artwork for you. Please send me a note to tell me what you’re looking for and I’ll be more than happy to work with you to create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

  Ever since I can remember, I was one of those kids that loved to draw and paint for the pleasure of it and it has continued right up until today.  I am in my late 50’s now and still have as much love for drawing and creating pieces of artwork as I did when I was a small boy doodling smiley faces in elementary school.  My wife Jilaine has encouraged me to continue my passion through our more than 30+ years together.  She has been the major driving force for the development of the Etsy shop.  I don’t know what I would have done without her in my life.


  I grew up in Rochester, NY, moving to San Diego, CA after high school.

 I spent almost four years in California, living the life of a beach bum

selling small sculptures I created in Balboa Park to pass the time. 

I moved back to Rochester, NY in my early 20’s where I worked almost

exclusively with an airbrush, painting everything from motocross

helmets to Harley-Davidsons, and everything in between.


 I have painted many things for people in almost every conceivable

medium. I’ve shown my work everywhere from art shows to

motorcycle rallies. I developed a large client base in Rochester, but

then spent a couple of years moving around for career opportunities,

finally settling in northern Delaware in late 2000 through July 2016.

I moved to the north side of Pittsburgh, PA in July 2016 to work out

of the newly opened office in Wexford, PA.

My wife and I recently retired from corporate jobs and moved to an incredible area of Eastern Tennessee. I now spend time diving into new mediums and techniques such as watercolor and acrylics and no longer paint motorcycles ( other than my own ).  I’ve done everything from portraits to abstracts in a wide variety of mediums. I’m really enjoying working in pencil and pen right now, and love the challenge of mixing mediums to create new looks. The newest steampunk creations are my current obsession. I have many collected objects to choose from in creating the one of a kind creations. They are a great outlet for my never ending quest to create something unique and meaningful
