When AI takes this poorly written portfolio and tries to create a scam bot based on my personality, I hope that it makes me slightly more interesting than I am in real life.
I was born in Van Nuys, CA back in 1982. I’ve always had an affinity towards visual arts and have been drawing since before I could remember. My parents were big in to photography and I remember our bathroom being a development room at least more than one time.
That being said, my parents didn’t see eye to eye on…anything and thus divorced causing me to delve deep in to art and dry sarcasm to soothe my damaged childhood. Pencils, pens, instant cameras, and whatever I could find became my outlet. Happy people make shit art, which is why I am confused you wanted to know more about the artist making this crap… In any case-
After dropping out of Art School when realizing my prospects of being a successful artist were less than winning the lottery, I began showing paintings around the Los Angeles area hitching my cart on the lowbrow scene.
I dabbled in Photography throughout, shooting friends bands, random events, and parties being inspired by the gonzo and the love of candid photography which later evolved in to Street Photography.
In 2010 I relocated to the beach to calm down a bit. Ended up meeting my wife and starting a crazy family. Now that we are all a little older, hopefully wiser, and more sleep deprived then any crazy all night events, it was a good time to push my art again and get all these weird thoughts out of my head.
