![]() DOMESTIC SCENE II 30 X 30, oil on canvas |
"I have always perceived the world through tactile experience and physical objects, I sense that the things that surround me exert a strong and palpable energy. The language of painting allows me to communicate this experience and transform objects into an asthetic statement." | |
![]() DAYBREAK, 20 X 20, oil on canvas "As a painter, my inspiration often comes from the way I see the world through the lens. My photographs are distilled through the painting process and the painting becomes a means for pushing the boundary between abstraction and figurative expression." | ||
![]() EARLY MORNING 36 X 36, oil on canvas | "I suppose I was born into painting. My grandfather’s paint store in Brooklyn was my favorite place to play; Shiny paint cans, tubes of color and the smell of linseed oil permeating the store were imprinted on me at a very early age." | |
"Art has always defined my life. I have a graduate degree from Hunter College, New York where I had the good fortune to study with masters such as Robert Motherwell and William Baziotes." | ![]() MAPPING 30 X 30, oil on canvas | |
![]() LANDSCAPE, 8 X 10, oil on linen "Recently, I received grants from the New York State Council on the Arts,
a fellowship from the National Academy of Art Museum, a George Sugarman (2007), a Ludwig Vogelstein (2008) and the
Queens Council on the Arts Individual Artists Initiative Award in 2009. I was also recently commissioned by the Jacksonville, Fl.
Airport Authority to create two large mosaic tile murals titled: Cloudscapes. Cloudscapes is permanently installed
in Jacksonville International airport." | ||
