He has been an Exhibitor at Newark NJ's City Without Walls Gallery, the Jersey City, NJ Museum, and his work is collected throughout NY/NJ/Pa/Fl.
'I enjoy the versatility that watercolor has as a painting medium. It affords me the opportunity to look at the world around me, and re-create it in a different perspective using splashes of color and value. The images I paint usually come from my day to day travels... sometimes powerful landscapes (like waterfalls), sometimes small, almost insignificant sights that attract my eye.'
