Complete Chaos Painting

Born in New Jersey in 1958, I have always had a passion for creating artwork and have pursued a lifelong desire to learn and improve on technique and ability. After graduating from the University of South Florida in 1980, I began his professional career in graphic arts, working as an illustrator and designer in the northeast. The next twenty years were spent working with advertising agencies, marketing companies, product design studios and for in-house corporate clients. In 2001 I transplanted to Chicago, IL to serve as the Creative Director for a large international toy company, developing and designing product and collateral graphics. These experiences took me to Hong Kong, China and South Korea to develop product and toys where I was exposed to new influences, different production methods and career-opening opportunities. Additional trips to Italy, Germany and London through the early 2000’s led to further growth and development of lifelong artistic pursuits. New opportunities led me to Charlotte, NC and to NASCAR races, working with a NASCAR licensee, developing product and graphics for the racing demographic. Additionally, I developed a series of paintings that reflect the action of the sport in a unique perspective and in a meticulous painting style that captures the sport in a new energetic way. In 2010, I pursued his passion in fine art and continues building my art career by painting abstracts and representational images with a curiosity to capture light and motion in unique and painterly ways. I exhibited at juried art festivals along the east coast of the US while working on commissions and pursuing projects with Collectors, Art Consultants and Interior Designers.
