I grew up drawing New York City, it’s people and music. As an award-winning art director, I worked with ad agencies in NYC and then upstate New York. Since my return in 2003, I’ve been illustrating for publications such as the NY Times and Wall Street Journal. Along with drawing and painting, I’ve been etching, and exhibiting work regularly.
