“I love painting coastal New England imagery outdoors in plein air, equally as much as crafting more involved compositions in my studio. Above all, I love the process and simple joy of being with my tools and painting. Life is good.”
Todd fell in love with the ocean while growing up in Winthrop, Massachusetts, a small New England harbor town outside of Boston. After graduating from the Art Institute of Boston, he continued the study of classical painting and drawing at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
Todd’s work is in hundreds of corporate and private collections world wide, including 41st U.S. President, George H. W. Bush. He has had the good fortune to have exhibited in four Art museums and considers himself blessed to call this craft that he loves his full-time occupation.
A twelve-year career as an illustrator followed before focusing full time on fine art oil painting in 2006, creating oil paintings for art galleries and collectors. He currently maintains a studio space at The Button Factory Artist Studios in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
