Mission Statement
I'm a caricature artist and illustrator that helps small business owners stand out from their competitors through fun and colorful illustrations.
Steve's Biography
I have been drawing and creating artwork since the age of four and have been a freelance professional graphic designer since 2000. I have served clients including world class museums (The Getty Center, LA), indie and mainstream rock bands, comedians (Joe Rogan, Jeff Ross, Bert Kreischer) internet entrepreneurs (Tom Woods, The Closer Look, Jason Stapleton, Adam Kokesh), and small and large businesses (Movement Mortgage, Panasonic, Google, KFC) in fields like film, marketing, real estate, manufacturing, publishing, and apparel. I am also a painter and illustrator, though for the last ten years I've been focusing more on caricature, illustration, and digital art rather than traditional painting. My clients hail from 6/7 continents, for which I am grateful. (No penguins from Antarctica have ordered yet, but I can hope!)
Qualifications
I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University. I made the Dean's List all 8 semesters, and at commencement I was given the coveted Paul Robeson Emerging Artist award.
​
In 2022, I studied under celebrated Mad Magazine caricature artist Tom Richmond.
​
I am very experienced in print, web, and corporate identity design. I also have a little bit of experience in video editing and apparel design. My first love, however, is illustration.

(I also have experience in direct sales, marketing, and customer service. I have planned, staffed, manned tables, and delivered speeches at trade shows and industry conventions. I can provide excellent references from former clients and employers.)
