I’ve been passionate about art since I was five years old, and it’s been a part of my life ever since. As a teenager, I began to compete in art contests and won many of them, eventually earning a full scholarship. I also graduated from the School of Media Arts which was a hands on creative institute to bring my skills up to a higher level. 

   My early years in the art world were filled with success, and I continued to gain recognition by entering high-end art shows and selling my work consistently. However, during the 70s and 80s, as abstract art became the dominant trend, I found myself disillusioned with the direction the art world was taking. After a while, I stepped away from the scene entirely, leaving behind my greatest passion for over 40 years.

A year ago, I made the decision to return to what I love. I picked up my pencils again, reignited my passion for creating, and started selling my work once more. The response has been incredible, and I’ve found immense joy in this new chapter of my life. Art has once again become my focus, and every piece I create is a reflection of my dedication to photorealism and my desire to connect with others. . Every piece I make reflects my love for art and the joy it brings to those who not only purchase my work but those who like to look at it
