As a free lance artist, I have been exhibiting since 1970. This includes several One-Man Shows. Have shown and sold work in a dozen states, Bermuda, Japan and online. Much of my work has been for commercial purposes such as illustration work in advertising. Most of my recent work has been in what I call commercial sculpture. This includes pieces such as five-foot long hot dogs, big ice cream cones, sculpted costumes and site specific fine art pieces. Have also done cartoons for Coaster Newspaper, Asbury Park, NJ and the Jersey Mirror, Woodbridge, NJ. There are a number of entertainment agencies in the state for which I have done caricatures at corporate events. A few companies who have used my talents are NEC, Exxon, Gucci America and HBO. Have also done work for Hands Across New Jersey for use in political rallies.
