When I was really young, I gravitated towards the visual arts first. I feel that's what comes most naturally to me. I've always had an immediate proclivity towards making visual art and I was a really tactile kid.

Drawing from art history and mythology allows me to connect with viewers in a familiar, yet loose visual framework. Blending disparate histories and themes can give the overall presentation a recognizable, yet unique flavor.

Give your stuff away and if it's good, people will come to you.

If I'm in the business of making artwork that is designed on some level to sell a product, then I have to be very comfortable with the people I'm working with and I'd like to be proud of the end result regardless of its sale-ability.
