About Me

I edited my profile with Thomasâ€™ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

I've recently moved back to my home town of Buffalo New York after living in Los Angeles for 11 years. I love music and art. I design movie posters for a living. Working in the entertainment industry is a lot of fun as well as being very demanding. I also do pin-up/fantasy art on the side to satisfy the creative side that doesn't come out in my day job. Being from the East coast I am very down to earth and really value friendship and family. As far as relationships go I am much happier being in a relationship than being single. I play the guitar and have a pretty healthy guitar collection. Used to be in a band back in the day. Now I mostly play sitting on my deck in the back yard. No real interest in doing the band thing again.

My Interests

I am a bit of a speed freak. I'm very into fast cars and motorcycles. I own a couple of classis cars and am very into the classic car scene. I also own a motorcycle and have been riding motorcycles most of my life. I am an illustrator and have a website with my artwork on it. It is Fantasy art with a dark gothic twist to it.

I'd like to meet:

Well, I'd like to meet my friends on Myspace for a start. If we're just throwing out a wishlist of names... On a professional note, I'd go with Norman Rockwell, Frank Frazetta, and J.C. Leyendecker they are my artistic heroes. If James Patterson were sitting in a coffee shop eating a piece of crumb cake I'd probably have to go over and say hello to him too and thank him for getting me back into reading books on a regular basis. There's a million more but do you really care?

Music:

I like all kinds of music except for hip hop, rap and country.I've been to more concerts than I can count. My current favorite bands are 3 doors down, Trapt, Switchfoot, and Tantric but that changes daily. I will always love Stevie Ray Vaugh, Led Zeppelin, Pearl Jam and Robert Cray.

Movies:

Kalifonia, Good Will Hunting, Pulp Fiction, The Crow, Dazed and Confused, Seven

Television:

24, NCIS, Forensic Files, Lost, Heroes

Books:

I love to read suspense thrillers. James Patterson is hands down my favorite author. His Alex Cross series books are what got me back into reading again. I average probably 3 books a month.

Heroes:

my parents
