ALIVE

Somewhere between my "carny" dad and the Elvis shrine my mom built, I arrived appropriately here. Fascinated and inspired by Neon lights, Mythology, Folk Music, and Wanderlust.

In 1995, I went away to college where I studied graphic design and began my career with companies like Corbis Images and Gateway Computers.

Around 2004, I decided to leave the cubicle and run away with the circus. I didn't learn to swallow swords, but I did get serious about painting while working with the family carnival.

My experiences finally came together while on an American road trip, the neon lights, roadside oddities, and kitschy American culture beckoned me. They tell a tale conjoined to my own and I love every bit of it.

Allow me be the first to welcome you to this Mythological Sideshow, where extraordinary creatures and their stories come ALIVE. My wish is for you to laugh, to gasp and to find a familiar sensation in each beautiful tragedy. Please delight your eyes in this menagerie of life's most mysterious tales.

And if it's the "Dog and Pony Show" you're after, I'd love to create something Retrotacular and Hand Made for your business. I'm available for illustration, graphic design, hand-painted-signs, and art showings.

Cheers!
