I began drawing at the age of 6yrs old and won an artist contest that qualified me for a free scholarship to an art school, but I was only 6 at the time.  I later went to an Art and music high school and after graduating attended the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts for 4 years.   After graduating I went to Montclair State University for 2 years majoring in Fine Arts.

My main  inspiration is the complexities of the human face.  Every line has a meaning and contributes to the character of the individual.
