I was born in Pennsylvania during a time when the steel industry began to decline. The gradual transformation from blue to white collar society and the inherent struggles associated with change have left an impact on my life in numerous ways, most notably in my artwork. Through the use of pure color and expression, I attempt to create a sense of contradiction and raw emotion.

Professionally speaking, I studied under Joan Beleavaqua & the University of Maryland. My work is heavily influenced by Gerhard Richter, Sean Scully, Jasper Johns to name but a few.

The election of 2008 is our opportunity to truly bring change and betterment for our country and the world. I am proud to support Barack Obama for President. Obama Arts
