I served in the U. S. Coast Guard for over twenty three years and retired as a Chief Warrant Officer in l982. I was born and raised in Mays Landing, NJ, but have been living in Oakdale, CT since retiring. I have been an part time artist all of my life but have been a professional since the late l970’s. I work in acrylics and specialize in marine art but love to paint other subjects also. I accept commissions and will work from your favorite photograph or generate a painting based on the subject you desire. My art is part of many military, corporate and private collections, including the U. S. Coast Guard Museum, Navy and Coast Guard vessels, Coast Guard Academy Officers’ Club, University of New Haven, Three Rivers Community College and the Waterford, CT town hall.
