Artist StatementMy desire is to simply bring more beauty in the world in ways that keep me inspired and move others. It is all about CONNECTION.I am drawn toward the romantic and the poetic, and hope that my paintings connect with the viewer viscerally and intuitively – while each work has a back story, it is never as important as the feeling one gets from a painting and the art lover’s own interaction. Heart over intellect. I refer to my style as ‘Romantic Realism’. I am inspired and take influence from a wide array of genres and subjects and constantly amazed at the process of laying down little abstract pieces of paint to form a fully realized picture – for me it’s like a form of alchemic magic!I work primary in oils and lately have explored figurative, equine, florals and landscapes. My style could be called ‘contemporary realism’, with nod towards Impressionism. I love playing with the line between representation and abstraction, and believe that underlying any strong painting is a strong abstract. I paint with mix of blend and precision drawing with big textures and juicy blobs of paint, working with both brushes and pallet knives.I have had my artwork published with a major provider of art reproductions for hospitality and interior design industries, as well as appearing on the hit TV show “Glee”. I produce gallery work as well as private commissions.

My professional career has been defined by a passion in one area opening the door to brand new opportunities in others. As a working musician in my 20’s, I learned the skill of web design and front-end development. This led to a 12+ year career in the web, Internet, graphic design, and front-end programming industries, culminating in the position of Creative Director at Vizergy, a leading digital marketing agency. With a strong skill set in front-end development, WordPress design and custom theme development, my passion is for exploring new trends in Internet development such as ‘Responsive Design’, HTML 5 and CSS3/jQuery javascript implementation.I have over 15 years of experience building web sites and working with technologies such as HTML5, CSS, javascript, PHP, Flash, content management systems, WordPress and more.

With a strong skill set in front-end development, WordPress design and custom theme development, my passion is for exploring new trends in Internet development such as ‘Responsive Design’, HTML 5 and CSS3/jQuery javascript implementation.I have over 15 years of experience building web sites and working with technologies such as HTML5, CSS, javascript, PHP, Flash, content management systems, WordPress and more. I began my career in web design / development when, as the only member of my band with computer knowledge, I taught myself how to build the band’s website. Along the way, I soaked up as much information as I could through online sources, books, videos, and tutorials – until one day I realized I was spending more time in front of the computer than playing with band.This led me to pursue web production as a full-time career. In 2006, I began work with YPB&R (later named yPartnership and then, mmgyGlobal) – a preeminent Orlando, Fl based advertising firm. While there, I had the privilege to work on such world-class clients as the Country of Mexico Tourism Board, Hilton Caribbean, Fountainbleau, Colonial Williamsburg, Isla de Cozumel, Panama City Beach CVB, St.Petersburg/Clearwater CVB, The Outer Banks, Outrigger Hotels and many more high profile entities.In 2010, I spent a brief time working as a studio artist in the Art department of FullSail University before leaving to devote my time to working in the web services field as an Independent Contractor. Recent clients have included national and international projects for The Nature Conservancy, Thomas E. Lamb architecture, 717 Parking Enterprises, Acaria Health, Comprehensive Pharmacy Services, small medical companies’ websites, boutique hotel websites and more.
