Personal

About Me:: Zombie movies are special. I wish I could live my life quietly painting and creating on the the island of Formentera, Spain. I'm trying to save money for a trip to Egypt, I must make it there before I turn 40, this has been a life long dream. I usually have a couple big big goals that I work towards with a lot of little stupid goals to make me feel like I'm making progress in my life. I am a great motivator for my friends and family. I am laughing most of the time, with a few tears in between. Life is can be hard at times. I make a lot of decisions and speak my mind. usually it seems like a lot of people have something to say about what I do but do nothing themselves, I never pay attention to those critics. I am a product of the digital age but love the simplicity of having nothing in my life but a pen, paper, and paint. Some of my greatest discovery in my art is by mistake, go figure!
