"This web site is new and as with anything new it will go through changes as it matures and grows". WOW!, this site has been up for several years now and it has gone through many changes and yes so have I. My work has matured as this site has and I hope it never stops. My work has been focused on the techniques of oil painting, and it still is. I enjoy putting a new canvas on the easel and watch as simple materials are created into works of art, my art.

I am for the most part self-taught, gaining knowledge by attending workshops, reading books and frequenting art museums as much as possible.

I love painting landscapes, seascapes, and wildlife. My second artistic outlet is photography. I have been involved in this form of art since as long as I can remember, both as an amateur as well as professional. Forms of this art will appear at some point in time within the pages of this site soon.

I am married and have one fantastic wife and a beautiful daughter, without them my existence here would be meaningless. It is because of certain circumstances in my life that my career has changed from public service to art. I have to follow this new path and see what is around the bend. Scary, yes; exciting, you bet!

I hold memberships in a couple organizations they are the Ocean County Artists Guild and the American Society of Marine Artists. Both of which can be accessed by going to my links page.

There will be many new changes that I hope will have you returning often. Stop by to view my galleries of oils, photography and my new goal is to attempt sculpting.

I am very excited and can not wait to show the world my abilities as an artist.

I can not complete this section without thanking my nephew Dejay for hosting these pages, without his help and guidance Mainland Studio. Com would not be possible.
