   Jack recieved his formal training at the Philadelphia College of Art ( now the University of the Arts ).  The graphic design aspect of his career has included art direction positions in both advertising and publishing.

Being an animal lover, he is now directing his talent to commissioned pet portraits.  He does this by photographing his subject himself to best capture form, mood and personality.   He then works in pastel in his studio from his chosen shot.

Jack has won awards in juried shows; American College, Darlington Art Center, the Waterfall Gallery, the Chester County Art Association, Penn Medical and other galleries.   He was featured on the Fox news network with Gerald Kolpan.  He has also appeared in articles in the The Philadelphia Inquirer, local newspapers as well as Nor' Easter magazine in Maryland.
