About the Artist

I've spent most of my life living and working in large metropolitan cities. They are wonderful social networks of diverse people and ideas, with varied perspectives and unlimited resilience to meet the challenges around every corner. The energy generated is an amazing, unforgettable and sometimes, unforgiving experience.

My hope is that you will have a good experience looking through my paintings. Maybe even an unforgettable one.

I received my BFA from The University of Texas at Austin, while being mentored by Charles Umlauf and Michael Frary and MFA cum laude from the New York Academy of Art in NYC, with Edward Schmidt as my adviser. While attending the Art Students League in New York City on a merit scholarship, I studied with renown artists Frank O'Cain and Bruce Dorfman, culminating with winning the Marianne Brody Gaston Grant.
