The images below may seem familiar.  They have been reproduced and distributed around the world. They are often considered to be vintage travel posters created by an artist living and working sometime around the 1930’s or so.  If the artist’s signature is noticed, it is assumed that he must be long since deceased.  But in fact, “I am still very much alive and painting most every day”!  Since the late 1990’s I have been painting this series which, in art classification terms, could fall into the categories of Pop Art and/or Retro Realism. These works have been inspired by the types of old images which appeared on post cards, magazine advertisements, travel posters and on other ephemeral items.  However, they first came into being in my studio in collaboration with Greg Young Publishing.  They have been reproduced as posters but the art exists as original paintings often presented in custom gold leaf frames.  Most have been sold to art collectors.  Some are still available and noted below.
