Web Design by Adriene Makstein @ 2008
I was born in Brooklyn, New York
in 1942. I received my early art training at the School of Art and Design in Manhattan, where I studied advertising art. By age twenty-three I operated my own mid-town based sales promotion agency, eventually expanding the business to service such accounts
as Bacardi Rum, Johnson & Johnson, Nabisco, and KLM Airlines.
I began painting in 1985 with
the same focus, creativity and energy that drove my success in advertising. I studied painting in New York City at the Art Student's League, the National Academy of Design, and privately with Burt Silverman and Everett Raymond Kinstler. In New Jersey, I attended the Newark School of Fine Art.
My paintings are carried at
Newman Galleries, Philadelphia, PA, Chetkin Gallery, Red Bank, NJ,
Peel Gallery, Manchester, VT, Greenlane Gallery, Dingle, County Kerry, and Yello Gallery, Kinsale, County Cork, both in Ireland.
