His work is grounded in an ongoing dialogue between structure and intuition. The son of a portrait artist, he began drawing and traveling to art shows with his father as a child. Later, he moved through roles as an engineer, designer, and educator, while simultaneously cultivating a studio practice. In the studio, logic gives way to intuition and process becomes a form of inquiry, allowing observation, gesture, and material to guide the work toward something both thoughtful and intuitive.
He draws inspiration from the coastal landscape, exploring motifs where abstraction and memory meet. Through land, sea, and shifting light, he reflects on the connection to nature and how time quietly unfolds through changing seasons. His paintings and drawings are intended less as depictions of specific places than as meditations on perception and the way memory paints its own terrain.
As the founder and former president of Somerville Open Studios, he has also been committed to fostering spaces where artists and audiences can connect through shared curiosity and exchange. Whether through making, teaching, or collaborating, he remains fascinated by the dialogue between order and expression, and inspired by the quiet moments where science and art find common ground.
