F A Q
ART
What do you use to make your pictures?
Traditional mediums. Pencils and brushes. Strathmore sketch pads (the ones with the big metal rings) are my favorite. Nothing fancy. I use acrylics for all my paintings. I've tried just about every kind out there. If you closed your eyes and grabbed a tube off my desk, it'd most likely be Golden.
What’s with the hermit crabs?
Sendak had the Wild Things. Suess had his Whos.
Where do you get your ideas?
One of these days I'll tell you all about the place where I "find" my ideas.
What artists do you look up to?
Not many. I’m pretty tall. But here's a grocery list of artists who's work I enjoy looking at: Pyle, N.C. Wyeth, Parrish, Rockwell, Frazetta, Holland, Sienkiewicz, McKeen.
Will you paint a portrait of my pet?
Maybe. I've done them before. Send the details HERE.
Can I buy one of your original paintings?

Want to go fishing with me?

Where’s your favorite place to eat in NYC?
Sooo many! Let's do it like this: Grey Dog coffee, Court Street Grocer sandwich, Arturo's pizza, Polo Club burger, Raoul's steak and fries, Milk Bar sweets, and Freeman's for being a neat place to take out-of-towners.
