Tony is a Nashville based painter primarily interested in telling meaningful stories using vibrant color relationships. He has closely followed Nashville's dynamically changing urban landscape, producing a years-long series of architectural abstractions that visualize Nashville's creative energy.

Mostly self-taught, his Art of Construction series won top honors as a part of the Nashville Arts and Business Council's Periscope Class of 2017. He has been awarded several grants for public art projects in the Nashville area such as his 2019 "Little Kurdistan Community Mural", featured on NPR. Since 2010 his work has been exhibited as part of the Nashville Artist Collective. In 2024 he completed his most prestigious commission to date: an 8 x 16 ft painting celebrating the Music City Center's first 10 years of success. Tony's other public collections include the Nashville Soccer Club, Meta, and Graduate Hotels, among others.
