Statement:

I have been drawing for as long as can remember. My art has always been free minded in the since that it never has never had a critic. I will not hesitate to draw vulgar drawings just to have them in my arsenal. I believe you can draw anything using any shape and any opposition to any type of art is simply non-artistic. The beauty in art is how much you get away with.

Background:

I have never taken art classes as a primary in school. I have experience behind a professional artist whom I mentored and remained close to since 2003(Sean Tiffany, seantiffany.com). He, as a graduate from the Joe Kubert School of Comics has taught me the ways of proportions in character illustration and digital mastery in photoshop and introduction to illustrator. I am his grasshopper so to speak. Since meeting him the only other art realted programs I have indured are some special college crediting classes through Boulder-Tech, A Colorado special media class. As a completely free designer I work day and late night to bring my views through my pen.
