Just Drawing My Life Away!

Art... what else is there

About Me

I don't know what to say, I am an artist who delves into all types of media work. I have been published in a variety of books and magazines over the years, and am getting ready to start publishing again...soon. I find that the past couple of years have been unusual to say the least. And now I kind of feel like I am going to be starting another transition soon. I have great friends who I try to stay in touch with since we have all started to spread to the four winds. I like to read, and stay up with all the hollywood hoopla. I catch as many movies, good and bad as I can. Not much else to say at the moment, just stay tuned

My Interests

I love all kinds of movies, art, music (XM ROCKS!), books, crime drama... basically anything that grabs my interest and holds on to it. ..
