INTRODUCTION
I've been drawing pictures since I was old enough to hold a crayon. I took a few art courses in college (and a couple of years of drafting in high school) but also learned from spending endless hours browsing the art books in libraries and bookstores and through much trial-and-error. I don't have a particularly favorite medium; I just go with whatever medium best suits the project. I've made super8 films and videos (and designed costumes and graphics for them), designed and coded websites, written and illustrated graphic novels, painted, created original art and photography for album covers (I'm a musician, too), and am learning Blender as I write this!
