2016: Paradox Pastry, Charlottesville, VA
This work was the first hand-painted mural I accomplished. It was the largest and first photo-realistic image I had ever painted. Painting on a porous cement wall proved somewhat challenging. It was completed in three months.

2016: The Local Restaurant, Charlottesville, VA
The largest private fine-dining spot in Charlottesville, VA, recruited me soon after my splash on the art scene in town after seeing what I had made for Paradox Pastry. Trusting in my talent, they asked me to formulate an image with birds, negative space, and a circle. I brought them a wonderfully energetic and mesmerizing scene of birds soaring out from a colorful design infused circle. I recognize this work as my first real “Eclecticism" painting.

2016: Foytik RSVP Handcrafted, Charlottesville, VA
My talented friend Daniel Foytik of Foytik RSVP Handcrafted employed me to compose a mural of him working to adorn his store in Charlottesville, VA. I shot photos of Daniel sitting with a $1,000 alligator skin and an old school leather craftsman tool. Both of us placed our minds of aesthetics together and developed this clean contemporary fashion image. I revisited my first love of 'black and white' in this mural. I find this mural timeless in its elegant simplicity.

2018: North American Sake Brewery, Charlottesville, VA
The co-founder of North American Sake Brewery, Jeremy Goldstein, reached out to me about a mural opportunity in April of 2018. They expressed to me what they wanted to present to their patrons and I set to work for them. This mural is energetic and eclectic in its composition. The black background gives it a mature essence of seriousness about their love for their product while the asymmetrical design and flowing colors imbue their fun and creative enthusiasm while crafting and creating unique flavors.
