Grateful to work a dream job! It began over a decade ago, drawing a chalk sketch for my own wedding at Little Owl the Venue on Greenwich Ave. After that, Maggie Hollingsworth, florist, friend and head of decor, asked if I’d like to draw some chalk walls for clients at Little Owl and Blackfoot Hospitality. 12 years later, 2,000 + murals and commissions and still loving every experience. I am honored to help celebrate many weddings, showers, events and gatherings. Commercial work has included; GE, Kellogg’s, Public Art Fund for Jeff Koons, AMEX, Delta, Google, NBC, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Amazon, Nespresso, Aldi, Condé Nast, Belmond Hotels, James Nomad Hotel. I also love the opportunity to create live drawing performances; MET Museum, AMNH, Arcosanti with pianist Sonya Kumiko Lee, Joe’s Pub, Red Eye drawing for cabaret legend Ms. Zilbert, painting featured on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon courtesy of the Foodie Magician.
Simultaneous to the chalk career, I was a researching artist at the Met Museum’s Digital Media Lab 2014-2018. With emerging technologies and traditional media I ventured into creating augmented reality applications. Recent work has been acquired by the Whitney Museum of American Art into their permanent collection. I love expressing myself creatively everyday, and sharing my work with the world.
