Fine &

Graphic Artist

     When I was a kid I wanted to be an artist.  

     I didn't even know what that meant at the time but I knew I had to figure it out, because damn it I wanted to be an artist.  I wanted to draw all the time and I never wanted to stop.  I never wanted to hear, 'time to start putting our pencils away, or lets clean up the markers...".  I had dreams of working for Disney or making my own cartoon like Tom and Jerry.  Even better maybe I could work for The Simpsons.  I used to practice drawing Bart and would tell myself how fun and easy life as an artist was going to be.  I knew I wanted work with my hands and create cool things to look at.... but not much else.  I just had a feeling, if you could draw life would be better.  Making a living as an artist would be easy.

 

     Well, here we are all these years later and I am still trying to figure that out.  I have worked on several different 'i am an artist' projects over the years with varying levels of success.  I have started sticker companies and t-shirt brands, created lifestyle accessories and acted as a broker of my own fine art.  I have drawn, painted, photographed, sculpted and loved all of it.  I have sold drawings to executives, won contests and had art published in books.  

 

     I have taught myself computer graphics since the beginning of computers just out of curiosity.  That curiosity turned into excitement as I got better and invested in better software.  Never wanting to change designs I worked on I was not interested in doing graphic arts for hire but had no problem working on my own projects.   That has resulted in my packaging designs making it out on millions and millions of products for several different companies.   From all of the packaging and design of In Harmony Wellness through the Pink House Labs era was all just a training ground for the marketing efforts and design work ahead.  Working with Medically Correct and incredibles really gave me an amazing opportunity to get involved using art as a medium to tell a story to customers through packaging.  Boring consumer trash but still art...  small steps forward.

     With nothing but time and potential its hard to imagine what the future holds but right now I hold an apple pencil, Ipad pro and a limitless imagination with millions of ideas ready to spill out.  Nothing but steps forward in front of me, no better time than right now.   

 

Currently working on graphics, prints, stickers, toys, sculpture and even precious metals and jewellery....
