As a child I grew up in Catonsville, I realized I had art talent at an early age while in elementary school a whole class of kids were amazed at a drawing I did of batman. The rest is history. I was told that it is hard to make a living in the art field but followed my passion anyways and started attending the Maryland institute college of art in 2001. I really wanted to go to school for painting at that time but was urged to go into graphic design as the market was hot at that time and graphic design was the new big thing. After Graduating from MICA in 2004 I continued to expand my skills with different mediums. From working with computer graphics to plaster, clay and resin and paint. Although I still enjoy working with resin my heart has settled on acrylic painting. I love being able to build layers with a paint that dries fast. I love to create contrast with colors in my work and provide some subliminal meaning behind it. I enjoy using the palette knife to inject a colorful burst to many paintings. I feel like this is where I always belonged. On the weekends I love to go for long hikes or bike rides around the river. Hang out by the local murals in the area or visit local art galleries. and eat at some of the great restaurants. I have exibited many of my pieces all around maryland and delaware and have sold many all over the United StatesĀ
