I have been drawing and painting science fiction and fantasy subjects as long as I can remember, but until 7 years ago illustrating it was only a hobby, something I would do to relax. Most of my efforts had been in academics. After earning advance degrees in Physical Anthropology and Archaeology I spent five or six years working out in the field excavating. But, I experienced burn out and took a job at Dark Horse Comic. This reunited my creative drive and after three years I left to pursue my own painting and projects. I have been illustrating as a means of making a living for a little over 7 years. I have found a nice little niche for myself that satisfies my natural anti-authoritism, reclusive and need for adulation all at once. I am not getting rich freelancing, but I do ok. My significant other and I have never married, but we have been together for just over 15 years. We own a battleship of an old house out here in Portland Oregon that is slowly crumbling around us as fast as we can restore it. We have one dog, one cat and no kids. I am fiercely liberal in my politics and a optimist at heart. In contrast to my art which deals in the fantastical I have a very empirical, logical view of the world, and do not believe in any gods, or spiritual forces. I want to take my illustration to another level and I am hoping to meet other artist and writers and potential collaborators in projects. |
