I began drawing at around 7 or 8 years of age fascinated with hot rod cars, Rat Fink and Disney. I graduated from Fort Walton Beach High, in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Then attended Okaloosa-Walton Community College (now Northwest Florida State College) then on to The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. My career has spanned over 40 years as a technical illustrator, graphic designer, multi-media and digital content creator and visual conceptual artist/illustrator for private industry and US Government (USAF DOD Civil Service). Throughout my career I’ve utilized both traditional and digital media/techniques in developing my art. In 2015 I decided to resurrect my airbrushes and restart developing airbrush art. Due to the break of over about 20+ years there was slight learning curve in the new surfaces and paints now available. So, to shorten the learning curve, which proved to be the best decision. I chose to take workshops from Dru Blair (on site), Gerald Mendez and Steve Gibson (Airbrush Art Circus), which proved to be the best investment I could have possibly made. Not only did it shorten the learning curves, but I was exposed to new and advanced techniques from the “Master” themselves. “PRICELESS”.

I now combine my skills in digital and traditional media to create my art. I usually begin with sketches on paper or sometimes on my iPad or computer. Once I settle on the concept I’ll begin researching reference photos from my collection or the internet. I’ll then composite the images and manipulate them in Photoshop until it resembles what I envisioned in my head. It’s only been recently that I’ve begun to display my art to the public. I’ve been recognized by Airbrush the Magazine as one of the top “100” Airbrush Artists for 2018, 2019 and 2020. Most recently I was also published in Airbrush the Magazine a "How To, Step by Step" article for my "Bald Eagle" painting.I was also selected to display my airbrush piece “BB Sings the Blues“ at the Southeastern regional art exhibition, ArtFields 2019 in Lake City, SC where there were over 300 artists from the Southeastern US were represented. I’m also a regular participant at Pensacola’s Gallery Nights (Pensacola, FL) and Pensacola’s Seville Quarter’s Artist’s Gallery Night since 2018 along with other shows and events across the United States. Most recently my works titled "Maverick's Left" and "Mavericks" were selected to be in virtual art display, "Surfing the Pacific Rim" at Huntington Beach Art Center in Huntington Beach, California. I was one only 7 other artist that had the maximum of 2 pieces selected from over 300 works. I was selected to display two pieces, “Balboa Guitarist” and “Maverick’s Left” at Fifth Avenue Art Gallery, in Melbourne, Florida, in the 100% Pure Florida Artist Exhibition. Concurrently, I was also was selected to participate in the Cultural Arts Alliance of Walton County Exhibition at the Emerald Coast Theater Company, Miramar Beach, FL. Those pieces were titled “Sea Turtle II” & “Sea Turtle III”. Recently on my work, "Maverick's Left" and "Bald Eagle" were on display at the 58th Annual Bay Area Arts Exhibition, in Panama City , FL.
