Biography 
With a strong and active interest in art since my elementary school days, as an adult I drifted into a number of related fields, ranging from technical artist to book illustrator and author at a later stage. As a developing artist I studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Art Students League in New York, and Instituto Statale in Florence, Italy. Working first as a mural artist (in the fresco technique) I eventually returned to painting in water color, which has always been my favorite medium and the one I’ve used in most of my exhibited paintings.

I have exhibited at the Farnsworth Museum in Rockland, Maine; Lever House in N.Y.C; Nabi Gallery, Sag Harbor, N.Y.; Canio’s Books, Sag Harbor, NY; Great Neck House, Great Neck, N.Y.; National Art League, Douglaston, N.Y.; Bayside Historical Society, Fort Totten, NY.
 Style Impressionism
An art movement founded in France in the last third of the 19th century. Impressionist artists sought to break up light into its component colors and render its ephemeral play on various objects. The artist's vision was intensely centered on light and the ways it transforms the visible world. This style of painting is characterized by short brush strokes of bright colors used to recreate visual impressions of the subject and to capture the light, climate and atmosphere of the subject at a specific moment in time. The chosen colors represent light which is broken down into its spectrum components and recombined by the eyes into another color when viewed at a distance (an optical mixture). The term was first used in 1874 by a journalist ridiculing a landscape by Monet called Impression - Sunrise.
