My Bio
I started drawing back in 2008. I had this idea for a series in my head and couldn't rely on anyone to show it the way I wanted it to, so began the start of my FEAR mini series :).

I started drawing by hand, scanning and coloring in Illustrator. Since my goal was to animate the characters I eventually switched to drawing in Flash with the hopes of animating them after they were drawn. After about a year of drawing in flash I was getting more and more interested in making the comic series better so I got myself a tablet and started drawing/coloring/shading in photoshop.

It's been 2 years since I walked away from my project and now I'm jumping back into it with a whole bunch of new skills I learned on the way. My plan is to focus on and complete one full comic book issue. The new FEAR comic will draw inspiration from the old series I drew but will mainly be a fresh start. I'm really excited to get back into this and can't wait to see how it pans out! :D

It's been so long since I've updated my site with something meaningful.  Something in me has resparked lately and I'm working on something big to help with a revival.  I may be getting ahead of myself with reviving something that isn't quite ready to be revived...but I guess that's my way of doing things. Act first, figure out the rest as I go :P I hope I'll achieve what I'm seeking out to do in a reasonable time frame.  And all this without a certain artist's inspiring work to inspire me ;) hehe

This summer it will be my 4th year since I picked up a pencil to begin my great drawing adventure.  I hit quite a bump in life last year which brought my productivity to an all time low since I started.  However lately things have seemed to be looking up, I have a new outlook on life.  I've been refining and seeking out more teachers to hone my skills and my confidence grows with every drawing :).  I just completed my first drawing course at the college yesterday.  For my next semester I have a course in illustrator and photography lined up all while attending some drawing workshops at the nearby comic book store. While I do all this researc

Hey Jay, you need to put your strips into some comic groups.  I bet you could build some popularity on them.
Maybe once I release my new series. My existing strips were more like my trial period.
i see what you did there.
>_> increased my deviantart social circle by 1??
that you did LOL
