I made these about a year ago from old National Geographics.

- Ever since I was young, I've been into drawing. Although I'm mostly self taught and more of a doodler than an "artist", I think my work has a unique aesthetic. My style combines fine, clean lines with colorful, psychedelic-inspired designs and playful images. These influences create a dreamlike world that depict my interest in cars, baseball, music, travel, food, dogs... life in general. Thanks for looking, I hope you enjoy my work!

The Clam Castle
The Clam Castle is a childhood favorite that's still there today. (Rt 1 on the Madison/Clinton line) It'd be a good place to have a wedding. I went there last summer, and this is an acrylic painting of it.

Piles
These pictures represent the things we accumulate in life, as well as the experiences we live through, the images we see, and the huge jumble of products we encounter every day. They're arranged randomly in a sort of dream-like free association, like walking down a city street and being overwhelmed by images & information.

Stumps
I like to draw the intricate details of tree bark and wood boards. It's precise, but at the same time imperfect. Unlike a man-made object, you can't really draw it the wrong way.

BMW 2002
This is one of my favorite cars, made between 1962-1977. The round bug headlights make it seem very friendly. He'd say, "hey man, how's it going? Let's go for a drive." I'd think it was weird that my car talked, but I'd go anyway, because he seems pretty cool.

Lamborghini Countach
This drawing was inspired by my elementary school Trapper Keeper. It's like an image you'd find on a calendar at a mechanics, or in the break room at Subway. It should probably have some lightening bolts behind it, and the woman looks a little too wholesome.

It's Hip to be Square
Huey Lewis and the News' "Fore" was the first tape I ever owned. I seriously thought they were cooler than Led Zeppelin.
