Born in Chicago in 1969.I am a self taught Artist currently living in Illinois with my wife and Four Children. I have been a career Firefighter Paramedic for 16 years.

I prefer to work in oils, and my passion is in portraiture.

My main goal with Firepaintings, is to remember where I came from, and I strive to keep my art work affordable with out reducing the quality.I treat your project as if it were for a member of my family.After all, how can I honor America's Bravest, if they cannot afford my work?

I have been very blessed with a loyal world-wide following, and my work has been featured in numerous publications, calanders, museums and magazines. I thank you for visiting my website, and look forward to working with you.
