Kevin¹s roots are in the Eastern Shore of Maryland. This is where he
aquired his love for the waterfowl and wildlife that is so prevalent to the
area.
He strives for a dramatic mood, usually relying on contrast and color to
achieve a desired effect. With his detailed style, he creates plants and
animals which are true to life yet artistically appealing. At the same time,
he captures that special feeling which is a part of every outdoor
experience.
He was a judge for the 1991-1992 Delaware Duck Stamp Contest. For the past
twenty years his work has been exhibited at The Waterfowl Festival in
Easton, MD and many other major invitational art shows along the East Coast.
Kevin was chosen to be Maryland¹s Ducks Unlimited sponsor print artist for
1992-1993 and for 5 different years has been named the Grand National
Waterfowl Association Artist of the Year.
His formal art education was aquired at The Maryland Institute of Art in
Baltimore, MD where he received his degree in Graphic Design and
Illustration.
He is a member of many local and national organizations such as: Ducks
Unlimited, The Ward Foundation, and The Grand National Waterfowl
Association.
His work has been admired and is now owned by such notables as Astronaut
Wally Schirra, General Norman Schwarzkoph, Brooks Robinson of the Baltimore
Orioles, and Mickey Mantle of the NY Yankees. An
original scratchboard titled ³The Eagle Has Landed² now hangs in the
Neil Armstrong Air and Space Museum in Ohio.
