About
I am an artist who specializes in fine-line ink and magic marker drawings. My work has been sold in the "Wish You Were Here" exhibit at the AIR gallery in NYC, in July 2006, in a collection that included artwork by Yoko Ono. I exhibited a second piece the following year for the expanded show in July 2007, followed by a third piece in 2008. I also contributed to the "much much coffee" collection curated by Ted Meyer in 2007. I have been featured in a new book "Artists Gone Global 2011" by Nina de la Vega.
I have had twenty-five pieces of my work showcased at the City Market in Burlington, Vermont. They were on display for the entire month of August 2015. I also had my work displayed at the Shelburne Library, also in Vermont, for a number of months the following year.
I am currently living in Jersey City, and have immersed myself in the exciting art scene here. I hope to exhibit soon! -
