From the sun-drenched sidewalks of New York City to the luminous waters of South Florida, my world-wide travels for work and pleasure led me to the canvas. As a child of immigrants, I haunted grand art museums and Central Park, and carried a gift for color and light long before science claimed me. For decades, I channeled my visual insight into the world of science, becoming an Emeritus Professor at the University of Connecticut and illustrating a book on personalized medicine with my own drawings. Following the passion I carried my whole life, I returned to the canvas with a lifetime of seeing, studying, and loving the natural world around me.

My oil paintings are acts of devotion — to nature, to memory, and to the fleeting moments that define life on our planet. Rooted in a deep commitment to environmental conservation and an abiding love for the remarkable ecosystems of South Florida, my work seeks to tell a story. Each painting visualizes the light and color of what came before and the quiet anticipation of what comes next, inviting the viewer to step inside a living, breathing world. My goal is to show that art and conservation become one and the same.
