About Me


Painting is my life, without it
I would go insane. Music helps fuel
my creativity so it's something I
like to collect.I love finding
old records of surf music or
weird old rock and roll LPs.
If you would like to see my
artwork it is available on my
website located below.If you
would like me to do album art or
flyers feel free to contact
me about it. However I am not willing
to compromise my style and or
subject matter. If you like what
you see than that's what you get.
Also I love old trash cinema,
the mondo flims are a particular
favorite but I also like alot of
other genres as well. If you feel like
supporting my art & passion copy &
paste the text underneith the banner
in your Myspace or Website, or if you
want to make a fansign for my site I
would gladly display it here.
