I am a painter/illustrator looking to work with a variety of models. My style is realistic and detailed, and my themes range from conventional figurative compostitions to offbeat narrative scenes. I'm influenced by many artists, from baroque painters to pulp illustrators. I also do research on human expression, which I attempt to apply to my work.

PLEASE NOTE: the pieces on my page are all oil paintings and pencil drawings, not photographs. I do, however, work from photographs, and usually use models for 2-hour shoots.

I don't publish or exhibit the photos I take; they are used only as reference for my artwork (my release form specifies this).

Thanks for looking!

I have exhibited my work in galleries in the New York area and have done numerous paintings for book covers.

My work can be seen in the most recent Art Renewal Center Salon, an online exhibition for figurative artists:
