About The Artist
My inspirations come from the Italian masters and classical drawing styles and from my career as a medical illustrator. I combine raw textured elements and morph them into more realized and polished renderings. Its this juxtaposition of “finished” with “roughhewn” that brings in the energy and dynamics for me and hopefully the viewer.
I earned my BA at UC Berkeley and continued my art training at the Art Center College of Design in illustration. I went on to receive my Masters Degree in Medical Illustration and freelanced in NYC before moving to the Bay Area to continue fine art and commercial illustration.
