		“I am self-taught, with  an 
		architectural drafting background as an influence.” 
		Sal’s paintings express his love of nature and the beauty that 
		surrounds him in every aspect of 
		life. His spiritual nature expresses itself with every brushstroke and 
		emotion that his paintings portray. His love and quality of watercolors 
		transcends paper and paint.
		
		Until recently , Sal was the Artist-in-Residence
		at the Majestic Mount Washington Hotel and Resort in Bretton 
		Woods N H. His gallery was located there and Sal taught watercolor 
		classes and  conducted 
		workshops for all levels. His paintings are in demand both nationally 
		and internationally.
		
		Sal’s commitment to his creative energy is truly inspirational and his 
		devotion to his artwork is obvious at first glance. It is a true delight 
		to see so much emotion in each painting that has been created from his 
		hands.
