Biographical Info I am a Cleveland based artist and Cleveland Institute of Art graduate (’03). My upbringing in the rust-belt (son of a steelworker) was a natural catalyst for my work on wood, steel, and glass. I create works that utilize a variety of subject matters, which include still life, cityscapes, nature and industrial photography. All images are tied to an idea of transforming re-purposed materials and finding a connection between the natural and industrial. Images are inked then painted using different layers of stain.  My work pays respect to the industrial rust-belt where I was born.
