His works have been on the covers of many art publications and he has been the featured subject of numerous magizes and newspapers. The artist's works are owned by numerous, well known collectors and are in permanet collections of many museums. "I feel a tremendous amount of excitment facing a new canvas. This energy comes from the thrill of transforming it into a recellection of my travels to the world's most beautiful and romantic places. As an expressionist, I paint fast while the passion for the painting is very strong. For me, the paint is the subject matter just as much as the image. I love the juicy chunks of color that I can translate to canvas with my palette knife."
