I'm a freelance artist (self taught), as some of you might or might not know LOL. I have worked for a number of companies that have included: McFarlane Toys (2000-2001 as a lead designer creating various works including the Tortured Souls series 2 figures based off of Clive Barker stories, Images' 10th anniversary series, Kiss, Onimusha 2 series, a few McFarlane monsters, the Viking Ages series, just to name a few. While there I did some work for Capcom's Onimusha 2, designing a few weapons that did make it into the video game. I also have done designs for Diamond Select toys (marvel and movie properties busts and statues) Toybiz (spiderman designs) Bowen Designs. I've also been a Story board artist for an independent movie company (Archangel Productions.) I've had work printed in various magazines, most notably in American Health and Fitness magazine, for the movie poster to Re-Evolution (a concept movie inspired by the novel I am Legend). and a sold out issue of Kitbuilders magazine, where my drawing of Tomb Raider was featured as the cover. I've also had some pinup pieces in a few comics, including a sold out issue of BloodRayne. I've also done some paper back novel covers for Wings Press. Philip series paperback. I was also featured in Imagine FX issue 28 (on the DVD) and in issue 30 in the FXpose' in the magazine. I am currently doing covers for Blue water comics, most well known are the Female Force series, Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, JFK Caroline Kennedy and Sarah Palin. I've been on MSNBC. My work has also been seen on CNN.
