About the Artist

To paraphrase René Descartes... "I create, therefore I am"

Over the years, I have had a rewarding career in fine arts, encompassing international awards and works in private and public collections. I hold a Master of Art degree in art history and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting and drawing,
Currently, my art practice includes a variety of traditional mediums, privileging acrylic on wood, or masonite board, that stems from my earlier interest in egg tempera. I am attracted to acrylic paints for their water soluble, opaque properties that offer the freedom to layer colors more quickly. 
I am also proficient in fine art printmaking techniques such as etching (aquaforte and aquatint), woodcut, and lithography (hand-pulled off limestone tablet), but recent equipment access restrictions limited my output.
I have a veneration for the craft of the old masters, coupled with an innate sense of curiosity about life. My language of visualization often draws on the legacy of Surrealism, where fantasy and pastiche play an integral part. Using a narrative of the line, a style of calculated precision, my whimsical at times interpretations of the human form are designed to unsettle and transgress boundaries. The unexpected, the hidden, and the playful can be perceptively revealed at closer inspection.

Exceptional Work

Innocence Lost - acrylic on canvas, 16"x20". Created during the Pandemic lock-downs, it narrates the psychological implications of life in isolation, the cognitive anxiety and the bewilderment of it all - as globally experienced during the Pandemic lock-downs. 
In 2023, there were over 2000 works submitted and only 86 were selected by the jurors for the inclusion in the prestigious and highly coveted exhibition ART OF THE STATE, held at The State Museum of Pennsylvania in Harrisburg. September 22, 2023 - January 17, 2024.

The pursuit of happiness may prioritize the accumulation of objects and career accomplishments that help to define our worldly status - and yet, they are often fleeting and unsatisfactory, if not balanced by non-material dimensions in life such as spiritual, intellectual or cultural values, friendships, family, love and our stewardship of the earth to keep us grounded, protected and sane...

Figurative Compositions
& Portraits

I am attracted to acrylic paints for their water soluble, opaque properties that offer the freedom to layer colors more quickly. My often small in size works acquire a unique relationship with the viewers, revealing themselves more intimately at closer inspection. 

Being inspired by the old masters, especially the Northern European Renaissance painters like Van Eyck, Dürer, Holbein and Bosh, I value technical proficiency based on a clearly defined drawing, and privilege harder surfaces to paint on such as wood and/or masonite boards.

Dulcinea
Acrylic On Cradled Wood, 16"X12"

Inspired by the 1605 Novel "Don Quixote" by Miguel De Cervantes. Her name implies an idealistic devotion to love.

While a mythical creature Griffin symbolically protects her.

The idea of leaving, sometimes forcefully, a place, situation or a state of mind that confines one to misery or discomfort. Finding a way out through a psychological or sometimes physical strain. 
Inspired by music of David Bowie.  
Lithography is a laborious technique introduced in Germany in 1796 and today practiced primarily by fine art printmakers.

Between Dream and Reality
Lithograph Hand-Pulled Off Limestone Tablet. 
Edition Of 20.

The world of fashion industry and its culture of make-believe is interpreted here as a contemporary Pygmalion story. The artist falls in love with his, or her own creationLithography is a laborious technique introduced in Germany in 1796 and today practiced primarily by fine art printmakers.

Tête-à-tête with Botticelli
Pen and India Ink on Paper

Inspired by Botticelli's painting from circa 1480, this drawing is a humorous take on the realities of contemporary, representational art forever indebted to, and dwarfed by the legacy of great masters. It alludes to the performative aspects of artist's identity and how that transcends contemporary aesthetics

Ophelia
lithograph hand-pulled off limestone tablet. 
Edition of 4

This work was inspired by a play "Hamlet." Her name is Ophelia, a Danish noblewoman who was a potential love interest of Prince Hamlet, the heir to the throne of Denmark. Ophelia is portrayed here as a doomed heroine destined for madness. Lithography is a laborious technique introduced in Germany in 1796 and today practiced primarily by fine art printmakers.

Pencil Drawing on Paper

A humorous take on savoir-vivre, and one's ability to meet every situation inlife with poise and elegance.

Guinevere
Pen and Ink Drawing on Paper

A modern interpretation of a medieval warrior Queen Guinevere, wife of King Arthur of Avalon; first mentioned in the early 10th century poetic tale.

Jealousy
Pen and India Ink on Paper

It's no fun to feel envy because such a emotion makes one feel inadequate.  In Shakespeare, Othello was doomed by jealousy, and King Lear by his pride; while a professional jealousy often tortures artists. This drawing illustrates an intensity of emotion with transformative quality for a person afflicted. There is rage, passion and vulnerability, tangled in one massive emotional confinement.

In Private Collection.
Allegory of Woman
lithograph hand-pulled off limestone tablet. 
Edition of 23

There is something disturbing about this matrix of bones, cartilage and flesh, all swathed tightly together by layers of cloth. A construct emerges of a young female, upright and defiant, whose seemingly sweet smile is juxtaposed against the constraints of her body, superficially content, she betrays a concealed turmoil. 
Lithography is a laborious technique introduced in Germany in 1796 and today practiced primarily by fine art printmakers.

Opera Singer
Pen and India Ink on Paper

Work draws on the legacy of Surrealism, where fantasy and pastiche play an integral part in deconstructing the performative aspects of celebrity identity.

Siren
Pen & India Ink Drawing

Sirens were generally described as a combination of woman and bird - a winged creature in ancient Greek mythologies, whose singing lured unwary sailors onto rocks in order to enslave them. Today, the term 'siren' is used to describe a woman whom men find irresistibly attractive.

Digital Media

Digital photography has enabled me to experience a deeper sense of the mystery that lies within the wealth of nature’s diversity, coupled with my innate sense of curiosity about life. Foremost, my photographs explore the atmospheric properties of light and shadow in relation to objects' colors and textures.
