About Me


I'm an artist living in Los Angeles. Below you'll find a couple recent paintings. There are also ink drawings/sketches, other paintings and random photo goodness in my photo albums. I hope you'll check them out. And I'm also open for commissions- so if you want one of them cool watercolor portraits I do, let me know!

I am also a face painter. With over a year of experience working at Unviersal Studios with Enjoy Your Face, Inc. (arguably the best face painters in theme parks today), I paint quickly without lacking in quality. Please check out the slide show below. If you live in Los Angeles and are interested in contracting me for a birthday party or other event, please email me and I will get to you as soon a I can.

Your Hidden Talent
You have the natural talent of rocking the boat, thwarting the system.
And while this may not seem big, it can be.
It's people like you who serve as the catalysts to major cultural changes.
You're just a bit behind the scenes, so no one really notices.

You Are Animal
A complete lunatic, you're operating on 100% animal instincts.
You thrive on uncontrolled energy, and you're downright scary.
But you sure can beat a good drum.
"Kill! Kill!"

Obama Racisim Speech

This is intense. I was impressed. About 30 minutes long but it’s worth it. Articulate and sincere. Somehow he makes politics go from this interchangable, meaningless spectacle to something real....

3/12/08- Aviator Rabbit and Man

What’s new... Well, I quit my job as an art class model. Tired of limbs falling asleep, of moving out of a pose and making slow, old people sounds. I appreciate models much more now, but I belo...
