Tony spent most of his childhood growing up in rural Western Pennsylvania.
Dense forests, abundant wildlife, bitter gray winters, and abandoned steel mills in poverty stricken towns provided much of the backdrop of Tony's surroundings.
Tony graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania with a Bachelor of Arts degree in the Fine Arts, focusing in Illustration and Graphic Design, and a minor in art history.
After graduation, Tony moved to New York City to pursue a career in illustration. He currently lives in Astoria, Queens, and after working 3 years as an art director for a New York City design agency, can be found taking on commissions as a freelance designer and illustrator.
