Nouveau inspired portraits and concept pieces such as my Tarot series will be the subject. Message me here.
“If an artist does not spring to his work as a soldier to the breach, if once within the crater he does not labor as a miner buried in the earth, if he contemplates his difficulties instead of conquering them one by one, the work remains unachieved, production becomes impossible, and the artist assists the suicide of his own talent…The solution of the problem can be found only through incessant and sustained work…True artists, true poets, generate and give birth today, tomorrow, ever. From this habit of labor results a ceaseless comprehension of difficulties which keep them in communion with the muse and her creative forces.”
~ Honore de Balzac

I’ve been a Seattle based artist/illustrator for the last six years. I've also shot professionally for Knives Annual, Blade Magazine, Blades International, and Coltelli(Italy).
I’m always seeking models for various projects, including paintings for various gallery and convention shows, illustration assignments and freelance projects, artwalk shows all over the Seattle area and personal independent study. For the sake of time, I'll often photograph my models.
I’m at work on illustrating the Tarot Major Arcana and I'll be self publishing my first book in 2010.
