Born and raised in Niagara Falls, Canada, art is my passion and greatest pastime. I have been drawing and painting since I was a child, and have over thirty years of professional experience as a mural and fine art illustrator and painter.
Living in a tourist town, it has been my pleasure to work on hundreds of projects for amusement parks and attractions including building facades, wax museum interiors and refurbishing carnival rides.
I studied fine art at Brock University and developed a love for the old masters. By copying their work on a regular basis, I have developed a rich variety of techniques and styles which enables me to paint almost anything that my clients desire.
My original work is equally diverse and I bounce from high realism to abstraction and everything in between. Oils, acrylics, chalk, pencil and inks are my weapons of choice and I never tire of experimenting and mixing mediums.
As an art teacher for over twenty years, I have watched my students develop existing skills and have enjoyed watching their passion ignite on canvas. I believe we have many masters in our midst and I never tire of advocating and supporting the visual arts.
