A retired naval officer, he brings a lived understanding of water, light, and horizon to his maritime paintings, while his landscapes, classic cars, and cultural scenes reflect a deep appreciation for everyday beauty. Working primarily in acrylic, Anthony creates luminous color harmonies and clean, modern compositions that invite viewers to pause and reconnect with their own experiences. His paintings balance narrative warmth with professional craftsmanship, appealing to collectors who value calm, clarity, and timeless design.
Anthony’s work has been featured internationally, including album artwork for The Echo Park Project and exhibitions such as the Amazon Art Show in New York City. Each piece is created with archival materials and ships securely from Japan.

I am honored to share some exciting news about two upcoming features of my artwork.
Two of my automotive paintings have been selected for the Amazon Art Show at Grand Central Terminal in New York City, running from 29 September to 03 October. This is a curated exhibition chosen by a panel of museum curators, gallery owners, bloggers, and interior designers. Although I will be watching from Japan, I am grateful to have my work included in such a prestigious setting.
The selected pieces are both automotive works. "Hot Rod" highlights the grill and exposed engine of a classic custom car, while "Going to Surf City" features a vintage Woody wagon with a surfboard strapped to the roof as it heads toward the beach. Both pieces reflect my love for the character, nostalgia, and design of classic vehicles.
In addition, the British car show "The Grand Tour" will be airing an episode focused on car art, and they have invited me to exhibit several of my automotive paintings as part of the program. It is an exciting opportunity to share my work with a wider audience.
Thank you for your continued support of my art.
