About Me

I am a freelance illustrator with over twenty years of professional experience in mechanical design. I have a masters degree in both engineering and architecture, a lifetime love for hot cars, and a big ol' box of Crayolas. My illustrations have appeared in magazine feature articles, U.S. Patent application drawings, posters, manuals, and outrageously cool tee-shirts.

I can draw anything with wheels and a motor. Drop me a line. We'll talk.

I'm an INTP with an emphasis on the "I." My Enneagram is 9, my inseam is 32, and my car has 300 hp. I skip meals because they take too much time out of my day. And I can crack my neck so loudly, you'd swear someone just snapped a 2x4 in the next room.

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

My Interests

Art that requires skill, mountain bikes, over-the-top hot rods, motorcycles, drumming, swing dancing, foo-foo coffee, cartoons, and the extraordinary woman who thought I was okay enough to marry. Not necessarily in that order.

You DO you like cars, don't you? Don't you?? Well alright then.

I'd like to meet:

Bill Bruford, Bill Watterson, and Bill the Cat. All at once. In my living room. I think we'd all get along swimmingly.

I'd also like to meet Rick Astley. Not only because he's currently the lord of ironic e-culture, but also because:

Music:

Dinosaur bands who were 40 years ahead of their time 30 years ago: King Crimson, Yes, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd.

Sometimes nothing does me up like a heapin' helpin' of The Chemical Brothers or The Crystal Method.

I've been known to sneak in some Rage Against the Machine between long bouts of MC 900 Ft. Jesus. A smattering of Beastie Boys, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Radiohead, and Tortoise appears in my CD collection. And pretty much anytime Robert Fripp even so much as LOOKS at a guitar, I'm there.

Movies:

All movies made after the beginning of Apocalypse Now, and before the end of it.Actually, Fight Club and American Beauty are in the same league.

Television:

No TV. Can't stand the blasted thing anymore.

Books:

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig; The Prophet, by Khalil Gibran; Iron John by Robert Bly.

Heroes:

If you have a hero, look closer; you've diminished yourself in some way.
