Years ago, we settled down to raise our children in West Islip. It's a shore community on Long Island, New York. I created a plastic molding business. The business was successful and today is primarily a medical products manufacturer.

When the kids left the nest, I found myself with the time to pursue a lifelong interest, drawing and painting. My teachers include some real heavyweights: Brian Atyeo, Stephan Quiller and Chen Kee Chee stand out. All of these giants were prize winners of the American Watercolor Society, (that's about as big as it gets).

Currently, I am a member of several local art associations, enter shows, have won "First Prize" ribbons and awards, and teach painting. I am a lecturer in demand for local art associations; primarily because my audience is usually laughing.
My website, larrysart.com, (You're on it now), has been amazingly successful.

It's my goal to create thoughtful and beautiful art. It's also important to teach, and help other artists along the road.
