About

I am a realist painter.

Born in Toronto (b.1974) I moved north in 2006 seeking a more peaceful lifestyle and now live and work just outside Algonquin Provincial Park.

Always drawn to realism, much of my early education consisted of endless hours spent drawing and studying art history. Over the years my self-directed study became more serious and I quickly found myself completely devoted to learning the painting techniques of the old masters while exploring themes and ideas that inspired me.

Whether painting a portrait, still life or landscape, I explore subjects that invite contemplation to create paintings that are a meditation on stillness and beauty.
