Ole Glory has been featured in the prestigious New Britain Museum of American Art and was created in response to repeated requests by students asking me to join them in their Veteran's Day assignment in my Foundations of Art classes. This flag, set up as a still-life, once hung above the Connecticut State Capitol and was used as a muse in this assignment. I chose to paint this section of the flag because of the twists and folds that represent both the dynamics of the cloth as well as our nation's struggles and unrest.

Summer 2023 - Coming soon!

Floral Gallery - 2024

My art always has a thread of the natural environment that runs through it. My love for gardening and being in the outdoors  inspired my landscapes and now some of my florals that are making their debut on my website. 

Trying on Liberty

Trying on Liberty

In my ceramic work I tend to choose subject matter from ancient or historical time periods. I've been influenced by Peruvian mummies, animal bone structures, impressions in muddy river beds, archaeological dig sites , stone structures and more. In this piece, Trying on Liberty, I was representing western society's idea of freedom being forced upon a Middle Eastern country.

"Ascension" in Ireland. Oil on Canvas 24" x 36"

My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at The Hotel Europe on Lough (Lake) Leane in Killarney, Ireland. This was our view while we were there. Both the lighting and the scene were so inspiring, reminding me of a Thomas Cole Painting. I knew that I had to paint it.

On exhibit at the Slater Memorial Museum, January 25 - February 28, 2025

Artist Statement

My artwork has always reflected my deep connection to nature and to historical and timeless symbols. My fascination with history, ancient civilizations, and master artists began at a very early age. With my work, I set out to capture and immortalize a beautiful moment or my connection to a significant muse that might endure the test of time for future generations to behold.


Master artists like Thomas Cole, John Frederick Kensett and others from the Hudson River School of Art have been some of my greatest influences, while my own style has evolved thanks to countless creators and work that spans all periods of art from the ancient world forward.


My artistic method is to find the light, color, and translucency of my subject matter to create drama and depth that evoke feelings of connection, curiosity, and awe. I hope to elicit the desire to reach out and touch - or to sit with the beauty, strength, and power of my documentation of visual history.
