I became an artist at a very young age after discovering it was socially acceptable for artists to own books full of naked people.

Over the years I have made pieces for fun, friends, profit, romance, to burn as sacrifices to the art gods, pass time, blend in, trade for beer, tacos, drugs, privileges or favors, while playing video games, socializing, going to sleep, doing homework or chores, on a dare, while driving, sleeping, blindfolded, with the lights out, wearing sunglasses underwater, using paint, garbage, blood, other things...

I most often create figurative or expressionist paintings, even though I don't formally know what those words mean, and my process involves blocking out basic shapes and colors, and then coming back across with wave after wave of manic insanity until the details are at a place that I am happy with. Many times I will just be so disgusted with my work that I will paint over it, so most of my finished work has about 5 or 6 other paintings living underneath.

I was born in a college (literally), but never graduated.
