| Introduction | I'm an artist and writer, based in Cranston, Rhode Island. My art has taken many forms, primarily book illustration and poster design. I am a widely published caricaturist and cartoonist, and have written and/or illustrated six children's books. (Two more are in development.) For a dozen years I worked as a medical illustrator for the US Navy. Except for technical illustration, there's very little in art that I haven't tried. In fine art I am working on two different sets of paintings. The first is a series of nightscapes of Venice, a city which first stole my heart in 1993. The second theme is "The Earth Reclaimed," a series of what I can only describe as botanical fantasias. I also design needlepoint canvases. Since I have a strong bent for decoration, I have now started up a mural business. I'm able to work in a vast number of styles and will gladly confer with any prospective clients (homes or businesses) to bring their own ideas to fruition. |
