I'm a Naples, Florida-based artist, specializing in contemporary portraits that capture human emotions and beauty.

Before moving to Naples a decade ago, I was active in the New Jersey art community.  I participated in many local and regional shows with a diverse array of paintings, from landscapes and still lifes to abstracts, and yes portraits.

But my move to Naples resulted in a concentration on portraits.  I've exhibited my recent works in a variety of Naples and Collier County shows and competitions.   And you could see quite of few of my pieces  hanging in homes in the area.

My Philosophy of Portrait Art

First, I believe that every face has a great story to tell.   I also believe that a painting is never finished, and there are no mistakes, because mistakes often become welcome surprises.  While I value other's impressions of my art, I'm the one who needs to be satisfied with what I do.  I've always known that creating art is a solitary endeavor, one where the visceral sensation of the brush hitting the canvas is priceless.  Finally, the key is to paint more and more, and wait for the magic to happen.
