Rocco Citeno

Art has always been a hobby for Rocco, working in photography, woodworking, sculpting, drawing and painting. In the last few years my focus has been emboss-ink etchings focusing on a technique I have developed using poly plates.

Rocco graduated in 1977 from Brooklyn College with a major in Art and Psychology. Here he studied under many famous NYC artist who taught as professors at the college. Shortly after graduation he began his 25 year career as a New York City firefighter, retiring as Captain in 2005
