I started this Etsy shop in attempt to share my artwork with a global audience and hopefully sell a few paintings along the way. Thanks for taking a look around.

I paint on plywood and other similar hard-surfaced materials, and will use a variety of mixed media including; traditional oil and acrylics, wood stains, ordinary house paint, and other materials such as joint compound and roofing tar. I've recently rediscovered encaustic and have been playing with that a lot lately as well. I’m also very fond of using hardware such as nails, bolts, and other assorted add-ons to form the various vignettes and compositions of my work.

I find inspiration in old, weathered surfaces – the back of a tractor trailer on the highway, a set of concrete stairs that I'm walking up, or the side of an old barn. I’ll often see little vignettes in these surfaces that I then attempt to either re-create in my paintings or use as as basis for their composition.

I work out of my home studio in Macungie, Pennsylvania. I am currently a member of the Lehigh Art Alliance, the Arts Community of Easton, and the New Bridge Group of Allentown.
