About THE ARTIST

Born in Mount Holly, New Jersey. his artistic talents were noticed by several local artists and teachers at a very young age. The Scholastic Art Awards Gold Key and the New Jersey Governors Art Awards provided a scholarship for higher education in art. He graduated from The Savannah College of Art and Design with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Illustration. 

During his college years, his portfolio grew as well as his passion to pursue a career in golf. After graduation, the starving artist’s years were cut short by, a decision to pursue a lifelong dream of becoming a PGA Professional. Robert attained membership in, the PGA of America in 2003. During his twenty-nine-year career in professional golf, his art experience evolved into advertising and marketing responsibilities for many respected organizations. Several commissions for paintings, illustrations and advertising at prestigious golf clubs in the Philadelphia region provided the fuel for the return to art in 2010.

In 2014 he was given an opportunity to teach at Wilmington University as an Adjunct Professor in the College of Technology. The programs include 2D Animation and 3D Animation, Multi-Media Design, and Environment Creation for Games, Video, and Motion Graphics. 

Robert instructs students with state-of-the-art software, designed to create cutting-edge animations, special effects, gaming, and digital graphic arts. Programs include Autodesk Maya, Houdini, Toon Boom, Unity, Adobe Creative Suite, 

He enjoys the digital arts and animation, but his heart will always be linked to paper and canvas. Painting continues to provide a release and his creations are now providing inspiration to others in the art world. his works are in corporate and private collections in many cities 

across the United States. 

Robert enjoys listening to music and watching movies like everyone else.  Many of his pieces are directly influenced by film, literature, music, and nature. He loves recreating landscapes, trees, and wildlife in his work.

He uses many different fine mediums, such as oils, acrylics, pen and ink, watercolors, and charcoals. He believes that working in a single medium is restrictive to his artistic process. Each idea manifests in its own individual style.
