Primarily self-trained, his career as an artist has taken a serpentine path through craft, manufacturing, multimedia production, music, and the fine arts. Through it all, he has been making machinery of one kind or another for over thirty-five years.

	Beginning with model-making as a child; then teaching himself guitar making as a teenager, Litwin has always asserted his destiny as an unconventional independent. Despite not following the well-established school and career paths, taken by most, he has none the less succeeded in various professions, without benefit of formal credentials. Instead, he’s relied on the merits of demonstrated skills and knowledge, gained through a continuing practice of self-directed, conscious observation, and synthesis.

Primarily self-trained, his career as an artist has taken a serpentine path through craft, manufacturing, multimedia production, music, and the fine arts. Through it all, he has been making machinery of one kind or another for over thirty-five years.

			Beginning with model-making as a child; then teaching himself guitar making as a teenager, Litwin has always asserted his destiny as an unconventional independent. Despite not following the well-established school and career paths, taken by most, he has none the less succeeded in various professions, without benefit of formal credentials. Instead, he’s relied on the merits of demonstrated skills and knowledge, gained through a continuing practice of self-directed, conscious observation, and synthesis.

			That unique career path has included: medical product manufacturing design, museum exhibit design and fabrication, electronics manufacturing equipment design and prototyping, 3D animation, graphic design and interactive multimedia production.

			Today, as a sculptor of kinetic automata, as well as a singer and guitarist, performing interpretations of 1920s era, ragtime, jazz and blues; and as an arts educator, working with students of every description, Litwin continues to redefine himself as an artist. His most recent projects have involved community outreach and residency programs, sometimes combining both visual and musical arts, throughout the mid Atlantic and Midwest region of the US.
