About Me

i am a painter; here's a little of my work .. If you are interested in my work, feel free to message me, just please, don't use any of it without permission, thanks. i feel that i am in a constant state of change which is good. Change brings growth and deeper understanding. My mind changes every day on things i believed to be concrete the day before, thus proving that i know nothing. i do like to argue, call it what you will, but i like to break things down so i know that i really understand them AND that usually involves debate. Please don't take it personally. i don't like it when people misrepresent others beliefs or speak in ignorance of those beliefs. i AM ridiculous about most everything and laugh at myself a lot, join me, i can take it, which is good since i constantly make a horse's ass of myself. i am hypocryte, like everyone else. Regardless....... Life is beautiful. i have a beautiful wife and 2 baby boys, who i love very much! They are the best things that have ever happened to me and GOD BLESS MY WIFE, MARY for her endless patience with my dumb ass. Jon and Jack, my sons are super smart and healthy and strong and i am a proud, proud, daddy (if you couldn't tell) i am a Fine Arts major at TTU.Photos You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !
