I'm a self taught artist.  In high school I attended a gifted program for artists.  During that time I won First Place for the drawing category and Best of Show in Okaloosa County Art Contest, FL.

I've worked in several different art mediums:  airbrush,  pen & ink, acrylic and oil painting, sculpture (including molding and casting), and digital illustration.  Paid my way through college working as an airbrush artist in Fort Walton Beach and Destin, FL.

My start in commercial art came in advertising and design over 28 years ago.  Back then my work experience came from the screen printing field, haunt industry and in a whiskey distillery.  The jobs involved handling customers such as Minor League Baseball teams, Collegiate designs, major corporations, and larger government agencies.  Also, I've worked with a diverse group of print industry manufacturers.  Further I've created sets and special effects for haunted attractions.  This involved construction, special effects makeup and mask construction.  Also, I've created federal and state government approved advertisements and labels for micro breweries, wineries and distilleries.

My education includes degrees in computer programming, Criminal Justice and a Masters in Business Administration.  As a result, I've created web sites, databases, created marketing programs, and given advise on business strategy.  My extensive experience has given me years of well rounded understanding of different industries, promotions and advertising.
