Biography
I was born in Toronto in 1965. I attended the Ontario College of Art and Design and began exhibiting and selling my work in 1986 at the age of 21.
After graduating, I made a living in Toronto through sculpting, designing commercial displays, and painting in a variety of mediums which included Oil, Encaustic and Acrylic.
In 1995 and 1996, I studied with the Italian-American artist Alex Shundi in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and worked as an assistant to southwestern sculptor Daniel Pierre at the Pier Studio/ Gallery in Jerome, Arizona.
I returned to Toronto in 1996 and stayed there for the next six years.
My paintings were featured at the 1996 La Quinta Fall Festival of the Arts in California and at the 2001 Plein Air Painting Competition in Tucson Arizona.
I have lived in and around Ottawa since 2001.
