To pay the bills and have my summers off, I am a high school Visual Arts teacher but I see myself primarily as an artist. Pen and ink mostly, but I dabble with the paint. Creativity is a driving force in my life. I get bored fast, so keep the conversation moving and I'm with you all the way. Get quiet on me and you might catch me multi-tasking you right out of my life.

As for comics, I own The Dragonwerx (a comics and graphic design studio). Among the titles in the works are Brushstrokes, My Days as a Dead Man and the Icarus Imperative. I do inking and design work for others, so if you have a need, let me know. Look here for examples at a future date.

My favorite in comics have been/are Starman, Strangers in Paradise, JSA, Outsiders, Birds of Prey, Heroes for Hire, Astonishing X-men and the Planetary among others. While I'm not a great fan of manga I'm willing to be swayed by a really good story, so feel free to reccommend some stuff to me.

I am found quite frequently on the Blue Line Pro/Afterburn Media forum. Click here and then head to the forum: http://www.bluelinepro.com/
It is hosted by the fine folks that create Sketch Magazine. It is, in my opinion, the current leader in reporting the art of comics creation. Check it out!

And check out my daily blog at http://dragonwerx.blogspot.com/. It is filled with mad ramblings on comics, art, creativity and everything else that powers my world.

I am also now a regulare contributor to Comic Related (http://www.comicrelated.com). Check out my reviews there and all the other great stuff the site has to offer.

I also post content every weekday on the Sketch Magazine website (http://www.sketchmagazine.net). Check it out and let me know what you think.
