eminent trompe l’oeil artists, and has since been self taught in fine art,
illustration, comics, and design.
His first graphic novel, "Amnesia"

working on two new graphic novels, as well as an autobiographical comic for
Image Comics’ PopGun Anthology titled, “Queasy”.
His illustrations and
comics have been featured in a variety of publications, and he is now at work on
an ongoing personal fine art series - "One Out of a Hundred" that explores the
side effects of medication as a metaphor for the long-term effects of consumer
culture on the human spirit.

his heroine, and Lucita, his steed [a chihuahua].
