BIOGRAPHY:
From official website: "I always figured the best place to start any story is at the very beginning: I was born on December 27, 1978 in Des Moines, Iowa and have lived in this area all my life....In high school, it seemed my medium would be graphite. And actually, that didn't really go away. Even now, I do figure studies and all my preliminary work in graphite. Anyway, when it came time to decide about college, I enrolled in the Commercial Art program at Des Moines Area Community College in Ankeny, Iowa....I signed up for Airbrush Class! I had never used and airbrush before but it sounded cool. Plus our teacher was awesome and he knew what he was doing, since he ran an airbrush shop in real life! His name was Shawn Palek, and we're still good friends to this day. I got the hang of airbrush pretty quickly. I loved the speed and all the things it could do. I started reading airbrush magazines and seeing all the cool work people did. Which is when I discovered pin-up art. My favorite artist was Jennifer Janesko, and she still is. But now, she's a friend too. That wouldn't start for several years, however. I needed a summer job so got on board with Hollywood Caricatures, drawing..... caricatures, at Adventureland."
