Fort Mill, SC
I was born in 1967 outside of Washington D.C. in Maryland. My early life consisted of living in various places from the South Pacific to the West Coast before my family returned to the shores of the Chesapeake Bay. While in high school, I began taking courses at Maryland College of Art and Design and participated in the Maryland Gifted and Talented Program. I also received the National Achievement Award for Art. In 1990, I graduated from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore with a BFA majoring in painting and sculpture. After college, I started working as a freelance mural artist which span over twenty years. I now reside in South Carolina with my wife and three boys. Today I have a small home business and primarily focus on personal oil painting on canvas.
