about me
I'M A FINE ART OIL PAINTER SPECIALIZING IN TRADITIONAL STILL LIFE COMPOSITIONS WITH UNEXPECTED HINTS OF 80S AND 90S NOSTALGIA.
MY INFLUENCES SPAN CLASSICAL OIL PAINTERS, TODAY'S CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS, AND EVEN THE METAL AND HARDCORE PUNK MUSIC SCENE. YOU'LL OFTEN FIND SUBTLE NODS TO MUSIC, MOVIES, AND OTHER CULTURAL TOUCHSTONES WOVEN THROUGHOUT MY WORK.
I'VE BEEN IN THE TATTOO INDUSTRY SINCE 2008, WORKING PRIMARILY OUT OF CENTRAL INDIANA AND TRAVELING THROUGHOUT THE U.S.
MY FOCUS HAS BEEN LARGE SCALE COLOR AND BLACK & GREY REALISM - THINK FULL SLEEVES, BACK PANELS, ETC.
WHILE I'M GRATEFUL FOR A LOYAL CLIENTELE AND CONTINUE TO CREATE ONE-OF-A-KIND WORK, I'VE FELT A STRONG PULL TOWARDS FINE ART, SPECIFICALLY OIL PAINTING. AFTER MOVING TO ORMOND BEACH, FLORIDA IN JANUARY 2025, I BEGAN DEVOTING MY TIME TO LEARNING & PRACTICING THIS TIMELESS MEDIUM.
WHEN I'M NOT PAINTING OR TATTOOING, I'M ENJOYING LIFE WITH MY WIFE, PRISCILLA & MINIATURE DACHSHUND, SOPHIA.
