I am the luckiest guy in the world. Well at least one of them, for sure. I married my girlfriend, Marvi, who was my gal in the 5th grade at North Beach Elementary School on Miami Beach, Florida. I paint every day and love to paint. You will figure that out when you look at the thousands of paintings I have produced over the past 46 years as an artist.
My art career started off in 1964 when I made my first painting and then in 1968 I became a professional photographer living in Coconut Grove, Florida on Loquat Street, that was before it was fancy shmancy. I then graduated from North Carolina State University, School of Design with a degree in Landscape Architecture. After graduating NC State, I worked for the Florida Division of Parks and Recreation where I designed 60 state and local parks. Marvi and I moved to North Carolina in 1983 where I took up painting full time and never stopped. We moved back to our native state of Florida in 1989. We now participate in sidewalk art shows throughout the Southeast and I am a member of the Island Arts Co-op at Cedar Key, Florida and a founding member of the Whohadada group of southern contemporary folk artists.
