I draw, paint and sometimes mess with photography, sculpture and ceramics.

In reference to why I carry a sketchbook everywhere:
You have to be ready to capture those ideas when they decide to come out and show themselves (usually unannounced). Otherwise, they float away and could be gone forever lost in memory.

Currently, I am developing a couple children's books of which I hope will come to fruition within the next year.

Current Residence: Georgia
deviantWEAR sizing preference: L or XL depends upon the shirt
Favourite genre of music: Broad spectrum of tastes.
Favourite photographer: Lots
Favourite style of art: Stylized illustration; art from the soul; I like many genres of art
MP3 player of choice: iPod Touch

Journal Entry: Thu May 24, 2012, 6:58 PM
Heading to Savannah, GA for a couple of days. We are taking the kids along to see and explore the historic district and a few other sites in the area. They are excited! I hope to get some renewed inspiration on this excursion. I don't think I will have regular access to the internet other than my mobile phone so replies to messages here may be delayed for a few days.

Your paintings are beautiful. I love your style!
I'm very interested as to what influenced you to paint like this and whether or not there's an underlying message for your works? They all seem to have a subtle underlying melancholy and I'd love to know what you're conveying through them, if anything at all!
