About Me

9-30-07. Greetings folks! I'm being bombarded by bogus spamming friend requests. So for the time being, I've changed my friend request settings. It's no big deal actually, it just takes an extra step to add me. In order to submit a request you'll need my last name or email address. My last name is on my page, and my email address is [email protected]. Sorry for the trouble, but this spam shit is out of hand. Thanks!!
I'm an artist in the Philadelphia area of Pennsylvania. I paint, draw, and sculpt...all in reccuring themes...creatures, monsters, freaks and weird stuff. I've had some work published in a handful of independent publications over the years. For quite some time, I've been producing my own books and zines and continue to do so. I currently sell my art on the internet.....something I got into about 7 years ago. And I occasionally sell and display at local art events, and a maybe small gallery every now and then. I'm also a member of the Philadelphia Cartoonist Society, a great group of creative individuals that I'm lucky to be a part of!!

Shrunken Heads & Mummies...

I finally picked up this book on Shrunken Heads by James Castner. I learned about it a couple years ago but hesitated on purchasing it due to the high price tag. I have to say that it was worth the wa...
