As a graphic designer/illustrator working in the DC area for over a decade I have had the opportunity to create artwork for publications, advertising, direct mail, and other commercial outlets. As an AOM artist I want to bridge the gap of commercial and fine art in an attempt to crossover (hopefully permanently). I plan to display commercial illustrations, pencil sketches, and paintings as well as abstract artwork and personal surrealist paintings. The catalog image is an illustration created for Interactions magazine (published by AAPT 2007) and depicts physicists as journalists.
