ABOUT THE ARTIST:
I live in Jamaica Plain, a suburb of Boston. I attended the Massachusetts
College of Art, and received a Bachelor's degree in illustration in
1995. My art school education served me well at the art-supply store
I worked at after school, and thereafter, in my capacity as an illustrator.
Most of my employment has been as a production artist; clients include
Vipah Interactive (where I created art for a children's interactive
CD-ROM) and Shaws Lawson Associates (for whom I produced graphics
for corporate web-based training materials). I currently work at Dartmouth
Publishing, producing illustrations and graphics for a variety of
college-level textbooks.
ABOUT
THE WORK:
The media for most of the illustrations and paintings on the site
are gouache, watercolor and ink (either on watercolor or tinted
printmaking paper). Aside from the band posters, most of the work
was done for America magazine over the last few years. Photography
has always been a hobby of mine, and more recently I began taking
a lot of pictures as reference for paintings. Eventually, I became
more interested in the photographs for their own sake; I use a variety
of cameras – a standard 35mm SLR, a few Polaroid cameras (including
one that I modified into a pinhole camera), and a few old 120 cameras
Ive found on ebay and at yard sales.
