About Me

Edward's Official site
I have been creating pinup art since 1988. I have written many instructional articles on the subject of how to create pinup art for Airbrush Magazine, Airbrush Action, Art Scene International and Airbrush Art + Action. This made me famous but I am still broke. :-( I have been fortunate enough to have had some of my pinup art published in other magazines. I even designed the FH-10 Freehand Pinup Shield for ARTOOL Products Company... it has been quite a successful hobby!I was the Editorial consultant/Contributing Editor for Airbrush Art + Action from 1998 to 2003 and currently I'm the editorial advisor/contributing editor for Art Scene International magazine.
My Book by publisher SQP is available now! and at Amazon.com
I have limited supply of signed copies available at my site with a free gift!
If you are a PSPer and want my artwork for Signature Tags then go to CILM

This is my self published Limited Edition book available now at my official site I traded an empty Chef Boy-R-Dee Spaghetti & Meatballs can and a used toothbrush to this guy to say the following personal service announcement...
"I've said it before and I'll keep on saying it: Your work is really brilliant. It's one thing to emulate the techniques of Vargas and (especially) Petty---it's an entirely different thing to really capture the flavor, character, personality and spirit of such artwork---and not just of the art itself but the era with which it is associated. It would be difficult to tell at first glance that these paintings had not been done in 1940. I think you are too modest when you say that your work is reminiscent of Vargas and Petty when it is in fact on a par with what they did. You have made these paintings very much your own." -Ron Miller
