About
In the 80's I lived in Venice, Italy and worked as an apprentice to one of the cities master maskmakers. I now teach theatre all over the country and make masks for different theatre companies. I do custom work and can take any occasion or idea and make it in to a mask. I also have a hobby of collecting pocket watches. I remove their covers and replace them with my own artwork. I have a strong following mostly in NY, Chicago and LA. The products for shows would be my ever changing pocket watches and masks.

Production Practices
In clay molds I use recycled paper to form paper mache' masks. Vintage trimmings and antique jewels are used to decorate them. They are also painted using modern and antique practices accordingly.

I spent 25 years living in Venice, Italy perfecting and studying mask making and Italian theatre. I love what I do and celebrate that the possibilities are endless. My Venetian son is my muse and my apprentices are my rescue Pomeranians.
