From an early age the artist has drawn and painted. He got his first art training from his Dad
who was a professional artist and a college art professor. Later on Don won an art scholarship
to the Art Student’s League of New York. Further training in painting and drawing was achieved
while on an art scholarship to the University of Georgia (BFA) and then later, he completed his
training in painting and sculpture at Columbia University (MFA).
Besides his involvement with the Plein Air Painters of the Jersey Coast, the artist belongs to the
Guild of Creative Art (where he is an exhibiting member), the Art Students League of New York
(life member), and the New Jersey branch of the American Artist Professional League, the
Printmaking Council of New Jersey, the Art Alliance and the American Impressionists Society. In
addition, Don holds associate membership in the Oil Painters of America and the group Allied
Artists of America. The artist has exhibited both national and regionally, most recently exhibiting
with the Hudson Valley Artists Association in their 75th Annual National Show in New York City.
In addition, Don has had one of his coastal scenes displayed in Plein Air Magazine (January,
2005 issue). Although professionally trained in the field of fine art, Don later trained in
educational administration becoming a secondary school principal. Now retired Don devotes
himself full time to his art and to holding painting workshops.
