I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I just got a BFA in studio arts. I went to school not necessarily for the degree but because I love what I do. Some say my art is a mix of Dr. Seuss and Tim Burton, it is very vivid and narrative. I also dabble in writing poetry and screenplays just to fill in time and to facilitate the creative mind when I am not dealing in 2-D images. I must admit that I am a bit of a dreamer which can get in the way of the harsher realities of life. I am always laid back and drama free, ready to have a great chat and laugh because in the end this is what makes the sum of life worth it. Myspace Backgrounds

My Interests

I paint and write. Currently I am working on getting my art more public as well as some paintings that regress back into my more mathmatical style.I like low key bars, interesting and real people with nothing to prove, good conversation and a glass of Merlot. MyGen Profile Generator
