High end photo retouching for portrait, automotive, e-commerce, hotels, and much more.

I am a portrait artist and illustrator, creating award-winning visual solutions for editorial, publishing, advertising, and institutional clients.My illustrations are rooted in realism with a personal raw energy and flowing movement. Concepts employ subtlety and use the components of the painting -- value, light, texture, color, and cropping -- to help tell the story. They work great for any project that has a need for contemporary visuals that are straightforward, accessible to a wide audience, and convey emotion. They also work perfectly for any and all portrait needs.Select Client List:Ameristar CasinosBloomberg Markets MagazineThe Boston GlobeBristol-Myers Squibb CompanyBulletin of the Atomic ScientistsElektra EntertainmentEyerus Visual Communication StudioGolf MagazineHarcourt PublishersHemispheres MagazineHistorynetHoughton MifflinLoyola PressMajor League BaseballMcKinsey and CompanyNotre Dame UniversityOld SpiceThe Recording AcademyScience MagazineThe University of ChicagoThe University of San DiegoThe Unocal CorporationThe Wall Street JournalWorth Magazine
