Cary was born in Greece and moved to Chicago with his family when he was ten years old. From an early age, he displayed a natural affinity for drawing and painting. This became his passion and remained one constant in his life. He graduated from Columbia College in Chicago with a degree in Commercial Photography and Advertising. He returned to Greece and for four years worked as a studio photographer for an advertising agency in Thessaloniki. While in Greece, he studied iconography at the monastic community of Mount Athos.

Ever since returning to the United States fourteen years ago, he has been creating unique and personalized art for clients across the Bluegrass and beyond. His Portraits, House Portraits, Sportraits, Pet Portraits, and Icons are the perfect answer for the person that wants to give a unique, and personalized gift - a gift that will be treasured and passed on from one generation to the next.

Besides being an artist, Cary is also a soccer coach. He grew up playing soccer in Greece and briefly played professionally there. Since moving to Lexington he has been coaching boys and girls, of all ages, at different levels. He has coached for LYSA, Kickers, ODP, was coach of the Sayre boys varsity team for 11 years, and is currently the MUSA Director of Coaches and the Head Coach of the Berea College Women's soccer team.
