I have been drawing for most of my life. As a kid it was an escape from the real world. After many years of traveling life's shadier roads, I have settled down with a wife and 2 kids. I now find my muse returning to me, and it's time to take this childhood passion seriously. For me and my kids, because think about it, how do you tell your kids to chase your dreams unless you too are chasing them?
So here I am trying to make my mark in the world of art.
