PAINTING
I have always been interested in art from a early age, eventually attending the School of Art & Design and The Art Students League. I have worked as a Graphic Designer and Illustrator, in my graphic design firm on Madison Avenue, New York.
I define my work as Realism (a.k.a. naturalism) a style of art that attempts to portray the subject as it actually appears in real life but
stops short of appearing like a photograph. I paint in the indirect method: a method in which the final effects in a picture are built up gradually by placing several layers of paint, one over the other, the upper layers modifying, but not altogether concealing, the
lower layers."
