"Introductions are Important"

First and foremost I love art and design. My sixteen years of experience has taught me that I can create something exciting from even the most mundane subject matter. I do this when I trust my imagination and remember the sound advice from the talented people who have been a part of my life.

I approach each project, from a corporate logo to a book cover, as an opportunity to explore my creativity. Not only finding an effective visual solution but approaching each project as craftsman - not a software junkie.

I have the distinct honor of being the Digital Design & Animation Program Coordinator and Instructor for Rasmussen College. The first thing I tell my new students is find your creative voice and "own" any given project.

My fantasy art is inspired by many great artists but mostly it's inspired by the amazing women who have guided all of humanity.

Earth's great secret lies in the strength of it's daughters. Of course we men have mananged to keep things interesting if not dangerous, but always we are guided back to reason through them.

There is some art nudity within the gallery so please avoid this if you're not 18+ or find this offensive in any way - thank you.

Besides understanding what it takes to reach your target audience - I respect what my clients go through on a daily bases to "keep the lights on"

I believe in a genuine
approach in how I deal with people, both personally and professionally. Yeah I can design but I also know how to treat people.
