Stencilist/Cartoonist/Graphic Designer based out of the Omaha, NE area.
My beginnings as an artist started off in a rather curious manner, which can be best described with the following words "HOW THE HECK DID THEY DO THAT?". This question goes through my mind every time I watch a movie with awesome special effects, or anytime I read something that can cleverly put together crazy plot twists, etc...
I wanted to learn how to draw, and so I did everything an 8 year old could possibly do in this city in order to make this happen. The culture surrounding video games, cartoons and comics were the big influences of my childhood that sparked the many different interests seen in my work (i.e. fan art), but unfortunately, my skill set didn't really branch out to anything further than using mechanical pencils and printer paper (I didn't attend any special schools or workshops that taught kids anything). After growing up a bit, I noticed how expansive my work could be; expansive in the sense of being able to use numerous mediums (such as using image editing software to create vectors/vexels, dabbling with stencil work, translating my sketches to polished, digital cartoons, etc.) to express creativity, while working on ways to adapt to the changes of media arts in the 21st century.
and so, I've been taking in as many different avenues I can in order to get my creative juices flowing. I continue to embrace the influences of my surroundings in an attempt to finding concepts and techniques that suit my tastes, but I'm also trying to find the happy medium within myself that will separate me, as an individual, from the others.
And that's me in a nutshell. If you're interested in checking out any more of this lovely tale of mine, feel free to visit the following social network handles (updated regularly):
