In addition, his works have been included in many collections, galleries, and museums. He has also illustrated several children’s books and magazine articles. He is a signature member of the American Watercolor Society, the New England Watercolor Society, and several other art organizations. He also conducts numerous classes around New England, especially in Connecticut.

Mr. Noreika is particularly noted for his series on aquatic expression entitled “Turtle-Esque.”

This ongoing series focuses primarily on aquatic life just under the surface of the water. The effect he achieves is beautiful, mysterious, and mesmerizing.
