About

As a fan of the fantastical since childhood, I felt it was my destiny to add a little magic to the world. Through my designs I want to show the viewer a world that they have never seen before. This includes introducing new types of characters into the often archetypal fantasy genre. I uses both traditional media as well as digital software for my art. My education includes Pratt Institute and Queens College, as well as classes at The Art School at Old Church, School of Visual Art, and The Grand Central Atelier.
