I am an acclaimed Art Director, Graphic Artist, Illustrator, Art Instructor and Watercolor Artist. I live in Trumbull, Connecticut and Art Directed for over 20 years in several corporate companies. Today, I am a commissioned watercolor artist painting portraits of people, animals, pets, landscapes, and houses. I also instruct a Paint and Sip business called Painting Between the Vines, to encourage and inspire experienced and non-experienced artists to create and explore all of their artistic talents.

My medium is watercolor, which is a master medium. it is the immediacy of the medium and the way the pigment responds on your paper to your emotional response to your subject. I love how the water and pigments flow together, forming what seems simple yet detailed. This medium can be soft to vibrant with transparent darks to staccato dry brush effects. Watercolors can produce painting effects that no other medium can match. It's amazing to create a sense of realism and depth with shadows and light, making any painting dramatic and exciting.
