Artoni (Anthony C Fletcher) studied art and painting in his teenage years with the great artist Ed Loper, Jr. He was very fortunate to study photography, advertising theory and American history at home with his father (Wilbert G. Fletcher) who was a community leader and a photo journalist. He studied abstract painting & design at the Art Institute of Philadelphia. He did his undergraduate studies at Florida A&M University (FAMU) majoring in Fine Art Education, Graphic Design and Entomology. While studying pencil drawing, Artoni was awarded a four year commission to create pen & ink drawings of insects for Dr. William L. Peters of the Entomology Department of FAMU. These incredible renderings were realized directly from actual specimens under the microscope and are now a part of the permanent collection of the Naturhistorisches Museum Wien(Vienna) - all before the use of Computer Aided Design(CAD). Artoni also studied Children’s Book Illustration at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.

As a teaching artist/cultural ambassador, Artoni has conducted design workshops in Central America for the Instituto Nacional de Cultura in Panama City, Colon City, and David, Chiriqui in the Republic of Panama. 

He has exhibited with Michelle's of Delaware Fine Art Gallery, Chadds Ford Gallery, North Carolina Art Museum, Cordoza Law School, Yeshiva University, NYC and internationally.

He has worked in licensing for several years with fashion brands & character properties for Ecko Unltd., Phat Farm, Nike, Jordan, Disney (Mickey, Toy Story), Warner Bros. (Looney Toons), Dora the Explorer, Marvel and many others.
