I’m a multi-genre artist, painter, and builder for the film and entertainment industry. As a member of Local 729 and Local 44, i’m at ease in a variety of environments, from painting sets to creating and painting a wide variety of movie props as you can see in my resume and gallery of work. With a working knowledge and hands on experience with 3D printing and manufacturing, painting allows me to bring to life the environment or creation. Comfortable with technical drawings and computer designs, my work combines a variety of mediums including, fiberglass, latex, polystyrene, wood, silicone, foam latex, and textiles as well as parts from 5-axis CNC machines including foam, plastic, and metal. Of course, I am always humbled by the highly skilled team of people I work with who share the same passion and artistic drive.
My finishes and faux effects can be seen in a variety of movies and TV shows including the Avengers: Age of Ultron, Guardians of the Galaxy, Game of Thrones, and Captain America: Civil War, among many others.
Combining an artisan mind-set with practical application, i’m skilled at following design guidelines from blueprints to rough sketches and ideas. I’m experienced with project development and leadership for movie sets and even bio-mechanical props including superhero suits, futuristic gauntlets, and armored gloves.
