About Me

Moved to California (San Francisco) about 4 years ago, and I'm still loving it. I do graphic design and illustration contract work when I'm not a slave to the cubicle working for a security company downtown. I'm almost always making art in my spare time, and even manage to get into a showing every now and then. I'm also trying to get more into writing and photography... Check out my website (which REALLY needs to be updated) at artistbyday.com My official "Coat of Arms" Illustration of characters from The Mile High Club's SpeakEasily night. (The Indra, Sailor Billy, Odessa Lil, & Rose Pistola.) Check out my photos (and art) at my flickr site.
