I am a Louisiana native from the small town of Slaughter, just north of Baton Rouge.  I have a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art from Louisiana State University, my concentration was in Graphic Design.

I have drawn from a very early age for the simple love of it. I’ve always spread myself over a wide array of things to illustrate; everything from comic book characters, to pieces of furniture around the house, to video game characters, to creatures I would dream up out of my head. Throughout high school and college I pursued drawing regularly, and gained experience by traversing through different types of art media and projects. I believe my focus in Graphic Design in college, integrated an even more technical look into my work.

My work is usually very recognizable due to the subject matter, and the way I engrain the detail of my work onto the paper.  The work is done almost solely in pencil, color pencil, Pilot pen, and black marker. You’ll find I tend to be meticulous, concise, and direct with my portrayals.  I am not happy with my work, until I push the detail to the end of the road.

In March of 2006, I started working in the French Market of New Orleans, selling my work, and immediately started finding success.  Now I am living in New Orleans pursuing my career as an artist.
