About Me

Hi, Will Renfro here, known by some as INKENSTEIN, I am a freelance artist/illustrator, specializing in Dark Fantasy, Horror and Sequential art. My work has appeared In Cemetery Dance Magazine, Grave Tales, Insidious Reflections, Brothers In Arms, Triumvirate, Soldier of God, Johnny Raygun, The Zombie Chronicles, Random Access, Mutandis and Fang. My art is created in either watercolors or pen and ink, NO computer enhancements...sorry, I just like working the old fashioned way. I am ALWAYS interested in getting involved in new and exciting projects, So if you need an artist for a project of any kind or just want to see some interesting work visit my online gallery at www.inkenstein.com or e-mail me at [email protected] - All artwork on this and related sites is created by and (c).copyright 2008 by William A. Renfro & Inkenstein Studio

My Interests

Main obsessions are: ART (creating - pen & ink and watercolors) ~ MUSIC (creating & listening...I play Bass/guitar/keyboards/percussion) ~ FILM (extreme, horror, cult, comedy)~ BOOKS (reading & collecting)

I'd like to meet:

George Romero: Visionary - Brian Eno: Musician / artist / innovator. - Charlton Heston (RIP): "Get your stinking paws off me you damned dirty ape!" - Clint Eastwood: "Go ahead... make my day." - Asia Argento ...{{{meow}}}...and last but not least, Bridget The Midget

Music:

I LOVE MUSIC! Progressive, Surf, Ambient, Electronic, Metal, Psychedelia, Folk, Classic Rock, Lounge, Jazz, Oldies...get the picture? To name it all here would take all day.

Movies:

Night Of The Living Dead is where it all began...everything else is just blood on the tracks.

Television:

Television eats your brain...and I hear that it tastes just like chicken.

Books:

Anything by: Richard Laymon - Bentley Little - Jack Ketchum - Andrew Vachss - Joe R. Lansdale - Scott Nicholson - Brian Keene - Clive Barker - (and yes...I live in Bangor, and I've met Stephen King...he's just a regular guy)

Heroes:

Ed Gein is my hero. He had great taste in people.

My Blog

...and the spirit will understand...

this one was a bit time consuming...so much detail...but worth the effort I think.                      &n...

Most of you don't know it, but my day job is as an Orthotic/Prosthetic Technician for Hanger Prosthetics. Where I work there is an evil machine called a router...this thing has tasted blood many times...
