Christmas is coming! This is a double sided, tri-fold illustrated map for the Canton Downtown Business Association to promote their Holiday Stroll for shoppers down and around town. I had a lot of fun doing the Christmas illustrations and loved the creative freedom I had with the piece.

East End House, Cambridge

Just got back from a wonderful day with City Year's Care Force and Aramark volunteers. You guys did a wonderful job bringing the mural to life, thanks for all of your hard work! Pretty darn good for less than four hours and what a perfect day to paint.

Barnes Mansion

I've been working on a 3ft x 4ft building commission of the Barnes Mansion, behind the Charlesgate Hotel, on Marlboro Street. I'm in the process of painting it now and will have updates soon, but here is the color comp and sketch on the canvas:

Color comp is a pastel and photo hybrid. The cars on the street are three of the clients cars including a Saab Sonnet with their last name on the license plate.

Pencil sketch on canvas before painting.

I'm Back!

Sorry for the absence, but lots of exciting projects going on. I'm working with City Year's Care Force on a mural for their Service Day at the East End House in Cambridge. Below is the sketch on the wall, a black and white line sketch, and a rough color comp. The mural will be completed with volunteers from Aramark on Tuesday.


The wall is 10ft x 18ft 7in and we have about 4 hours to paint it, wish us luck!

Here is my latest commissioned portrait that was inspired by a Goya painting of the Duchess of Alba, where she is pointing down at Goya's name in the dirt. The client wanted a military dictator with an "El Presidente" banner at the bottom.
