About

The Artist

Art has always been in my DNA. During my childhood, I spent time with my mother exploring screenprinting and with my grandmother in her flower shop creating floral arrangements. As a kindergartner I drew and sketched constantly, dreaming of "making it big", routinely sending drawings to my favorite childhood magazines such as Highlights and Crickets. Sadly my childhood "masterpieces" were never discovered. Over time, I developed other interests and plans so I put my artistic talents aside and did not pick it up again until my 40s when I quit my corporate finance job. I loved the creativity of entrepreneurship that I studied getting my MBA at Babson University, but the world of corporate finance was too constricting for me. So I took my artistic passion and business expertise and decided to get another degree in Landscape Design at the Boston Architectural College. I then launched Broad Meadow Farms Landscape Design. After a few years, Covid literally changed the landscape for small business owners and it was also at this time that my wife and I decided to redecorate. While shopping for art, I became inspired and suggested that instead of buying an expensive piece we loved, I would paint one myself. A few months later my art transformed our home and I was hooked. 

My Works - Abstract Pieces

My methodology and approach is purposeful and consistent, I deliberate concepts for months before exploring anything visually concrete on canvas. I define my paintings as being structurally abstract, guided by the principles of simplicity, balance, and fluidity. Art allows me to be exploratory and chaotic, yet provides me with definition and structure. To produce a specific piece, I am able to expressively and uninhibitedly, while still being confined to the measured canvas.​

My Works - Album Covers and Posters

My selections are rooted in history and art, and well, my personal interests. Some were designed by famous artists (Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat), some are enduring images from musical genre's (A Tribe called Quest, Division Joy), while others pay homage to famous illustrators (Jim Flora, Alex Steinweiss, Burt Goldblatt, Felix Rockwell). I will not paint just any album cover or poster, honestly just the ones I admire.
