Let’s face it.
I could give you the standard “professional” intro and rattle off a bunch of things about myself and my accomplishments, dreams and hopes — but that is really of no consequence.
In the end, it all boils down to this —
There is only one thing I believe I was put on this planet to do, and that is to sit in the back, and MAKE STUFF.
Though I’m a “desktop jockey” (graphic designer) by day, my first love is comic illustration, and it's a skill that I'm trying to develop further.
I'll be posting random projects here, as I try to further my skills and develop my illustration chops. You may also see some more of my Graphic Design work as well.
I'm also open for commissions, so please contact me if you're interested.
So, enough pleasantries, it's time get back in that studio and make stuff!
