He moved to Sydney at 25 with his new australian wife got very busy with his business but started drawing again in mixed media and had had his first of 4 exhibitions when he turned 50 after frequenting an artists circle in centre Sydney who strongly encouraged him to exhibit in a gallery.
All 4 exhibitions were quite successful selling more than half of the works on the opening night.
He loved surrealism & cubism from young age and followed that path most of the time exploring futurism & abstract expressionism as well.
He shared studios with Vince Vozzo, Francesco Petrolo, Martin Sharp and others.
Now that he has hit 70 he's preparing to put together works for the next exhibition and have started doing new sketches, studios & drawing towards that exciting new chapter.
