CALL ME NOW (818)996-8282 LEAVE A MESSAGE IF NO ONES THERE!! i ride harleys, drive off-road trucks, and have been into dirt bikes as well. gigs and parties are cool but leave the kiddies at home. i've been a musician since i was 12. i went to dick grove school of music and pierce college for music and art. i like to absorb information like a sponge. skateboard graffix are my latest works. WWW.AAAARTSTUDIO.COM

My Interests

i have been working on some new muisic ideas. trying to stay focused on my tattoo/art studio. i am on my own now so i have to make a real effort. home studio recording is a new interest. i hope to take that to a new level. i have finished the graffix for jay smiths new skateboard deck. now im doing another for him. check out my pic page for dat. in the near future i will be offering a full line of custom jewelry and accessories(belt buckles, broaches). cusztom pieces made to order from silver to stainless steel. not production crap......

I'd like to meet:

the guys flying all those u.f.o.s around the san fernando valley. they like to fly by but never say hello. maybe one day they will stop and say whats up. other than that, you're all humans and of no significance to me...........

Music:

everthing from carcass to tennesee ernie ford. leon redbone is without a doubt a musical genious. d.o.a. will always a big influence. bad religion is the old school from this end of the valley(west) jay bentley made a good orange julius!!. props to my boys from jugheads revenge. house of pain gets in there. and who can forget killroy. of course there's a couple hundred insane british punk bands ; discharge,gbh,exploited,rudi peni,the mob,antinowhereleague,english dogs,sacrilege,antisect,icons of filth and list could go on and on...............................................

Movies:

when it comes to movies my uncle george raft is tops. george did awesome flix like "some like it hot" "scarface" "you and me" and list goes on. anyone that is into classic black n white must know his work. he even did a cameo in "casino royale" which is where austin powers got his mojo! all the gangster movies of today have to follow in the footsteps of the film my unc and his friends( james cagney, edward g., paul muni, boris karlof,to name a few)had made. old school monster movies are always cool. aliens and predators are insane but they shouldnt team up with humans in antarctica!
