Comics are my means for retaining my sanity in an insane world.

I studied the craft for 3 and a half years at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. I'm currently working with two writers based in Tennessee on an independent title called "The Union". Its all very exciting and I have a few character designs posted in the art section of my myspace page : http//www.myspace.com/christopherpj

My largest influences artistically include Michael Ryan, Stuart Immonen, Adrian Alphona, Stefano Caselli, Paco Medina, Skottie Young, Chris Bachalo, Humberto Ramos, and Mark Brooks right now.

My favorite Writers include: Brian K. Vaughan, Joss Whedon, (both of whom are MASTERS of dialouge) Christopher Yost, Craig Kyle, Chris Claremont, Allan Heinberg, Zeb Wells, and Warren Ellis.

My dream opportunity is to one day work for one of the major mainstream companies, illustrating one of their more youth-oriented titles ( ex: Runaways for Marvel, Teen Titans for DC, Buffy for Darkhorse)
