Welcome to Nightwing Studio

The name “Nightwing” is the title of a painting of a raven, the first piece of mine to be accepted into a national juried exhibition, years ago. Naturally, the name remains close to my heart.

Ravens and crows form my principal imagery, though I also gain inspiration from other wildlife. For me, the birds often display human-like behavior.

Direct observation of nature in plein air landscape and scuba experiences, as well as continual experimentation with materials, keep the work fresh and exciting for me.

You may view a recent article about me and my underwater (Marine Adventures) art in the September issue of  X-RAYMag.com, an international diving magazine online.
