Fortunately, I come from a family of artists and have enjoyed a lifetime of artistic development. After earning my BA in Art, my professional career began in advertising/publishing for Fortune 500 companies in the NY metro area, including Beneficial Finance Co., Bell Laboratories, and Cadence Industries. My dream was to become an interior designer and mid-career, I joined Ethan Allen's team of designers. Most recently, I founded my own upscale resale and interior design store, The Tag Sale Shoppe, which continues today under new ownership. Since moving to NC, I happily discovered The Waterway Art Association and I am proud to be serving as it's current President.

Retired in 2021 after 40+ years as a non-profit fundraiser and event planner. Moved to SC a little over 2 years ago from Maryland, where I was born and raised. Regained my love of acrylic painting about 5 years ago after a 30 year break raising a family, and began by painting pictures for gifts for friends and family. Usually paint from photographs, and try to make my paintings look as realistic as I can.
After retiring from Mars Corporation in New Jersey, Tony Francisco has spent roughly a decade exploring impressionistic, portrait, abstract and figurative paintings in acrylics and watercolors.
Vic Guarino is serving as WAA’s Treasurer for the second time. He previously served as Treasurer for the Brunswick Arts Council, and has a professional background in finance and federal government procurement.
