I knew I was going to be an artist for as long as I can remember, and worked unwaveringly toward that goal throughout my childhood and young adult hood. (To the the dismay of my parents and the exclusion of all those "important" things like math, science, and other non-creative school priorities.) So far it's turned out all right!
I have worked as a professional commercial illustrator for 20+ years. In my free time I draw, paint, and sculpt for myself.
I live in Warwick NY with my wife, glass artist Dawn Thompson, and our 2 sons.
