used to be... i got in a lotta trouble when i was 18 over a shooting, went to jail for a few years... so i had a lot of time to kinda sit and practice my craft... i got out and after doing the thing as a mortgage broker for a couple years i started up this again, bought some airbrushes, some videos, and basically taught myself how to paint. so there's been a lot of user error along the way but i did ok and eventually opened a sportbike shop.

long story short that went under a year ago when i took on a partner and i lost a good bit of my equipment. trying to get back into the habit of painting etc again...

sorry to hear of your misfortune but it looks like you are making the best of it, and you definitely have some awesome talent...

i can't really call it misfortune... i shot two people when i was 18 and went to prison for it. to say i have a bad temper is a huge understatement.. but had i not gotten caught THEN i'd have probably ended up spending the rest of my life there... so things worked out regardless... just debating on whether to just concentrate on airbriush work and my artwork or actually go back into operating a bike shop full swing.. which believe me, has more than it's fair share of "perks" lol

two of my boys are over there now, and another one goes end of the month. no way you could get me in the military. no ptsd or anything i just was born with a bad attitude. i don't look for trouble but i quickly will end whatevers making issues for me.

A good friend of mine would love your work,he's quite the artist himself but has a dark side to his stuff when his mood changes,he did all the artwork for the pt cruiser ads in the uk..a bit mundane for his skills but it pays the bills.. ;)
