Biography
Artist Statement:
I'm a passionate American painter who has exhibited his work throughout the US. A love for drawing life-sized versions of my favorite Star Wars characters as a child eventually turned into a passion for fine art, and in the years since have pursued it fully through my education and as my profession. I've explored a wide range of different materials, techniques and styles.
My work took a big turn in 2019, after spending 20 years in St. Pete, FL. When my wife and I decided to make a move out Klamath Falls, OR. From a bustling city on the beach to a quiet town deep in the mountains of Southern Oregon. Without any intensions, my work immediately followed suit. Chaotic compositions of vibrant contrasting colors on a clean smooth surface immediately turned to textured earthy neutrals on the edge of minimalism with a weathered vintage vibe. Inspiration that feeds off this old little industrial town, isolated by a rugged terrain and climate.
