Hi. Thanks for visiting my page!

I was born an artist.

**I am always in search of talented muses! Nude and Non-Nude models are welcome to collaborate with me.**

I have gone on hiatus from my career as a graphic designer, in order to pursue my own creative vision on a full-time basis.

I enjoy drawing from life, and from my imagination, but I sometimes generate my drawings and paintings from assorted photo references, due to time constraints.

I want to shoot some underwater nudes this summer, and plan to do a series of paintings based on these photos.


I am a man of divergent tastes. I love the art of the Italian Renaissance and the Harlem Renaissance. I enjoy Pop Art and Expressionism. I adore Art Deco and grafitti...Elizabeth Catlett and Roy Lichtenstein. I could go on, ad infinitum!!

I have earned a BFA in Communication Arts and Design, and my MFA degree in Painting.

I love bold, intense, saturated colors!

I am traditionally a figurative painter, but I also enjoy creating abstract works. I am also an aspiring sculptor, and a competent photographer. Most of my photographs serve as artistic references for my other creative endeavors.

Hope to meet creative individuals from all walks of life on MM, and in everything I do!


Feel free to e-mail to drop me a line!

Thanks.  :)

**FYI (UPDATED INFO, 7/18/2016): I pay by personal check OR credit card, at the beginning of the shoot, immediately after Model Release is signed. Thanks!**

TShaw is beautiful, intelligent, poised, and extremely professional.
She is the quintessential fine art and fashion model. Smart, insightful, and incredibly personable, she is the ideal creative collaborator.

Tara is smart, funny, and wondrously talented. She is a superb athlete and model, with a terrific sense of humor. Her wisdom, instincts, and athleticism are all tremendous assets in her repertoire.
