Tony began to pursue collograph printing in 1975. The process involves building up and incising layers of various materials to serve as a plate from which to print. The plate allows for the impression of different textures and materials.

Tony trained at and became a member of Sandy Pond Printmakers. He established himself in the medium and his work was exhibited at the Marblehead Art Guild, and at Marblehead Arts Festival, where it often won prizes.  His collographs included landscapes, abstracts, and figurative subjects. He was also very drawn to the wood carved horses and figures in traditional carousels found in New England.
