There was never any choice in the matter. As a small child, without a television to hypnotize me, I began drawing visual stories to entertain myself in the quiet woods of Northern California. Raised by a single parent, enduring a mostly vagabond lifestyle, with little formal schooling to structure my days, I found comfort in my own imaginary worlds, and the creatures that inhabited them.

In 1993, at the age of 22, my vampire flavored comic book series BLOOD & KISSES was published. Since then I have worked exclusively as a freelance illustrator, conceptual artist, and character designer, while occasionally dabbling in comic book art for Dark Horse’s ALIENS: HAVOC, Alex Sheikman’s ROBOTIKA, Zenescope’s SE7EN: ENVY (written by David Mack), and the Tori Amos tribute COMIC BOOK TATTOO from Image, in which I wrote and illustrated a story inspired by her song Little Amsterdam.

My clients have included White Wolf Publishing, Rootamental Skateboards, Seattle Weekly, Human Head Studios, Verotik, Harper Prism, Disney Interactive, Scholastic, Visual Purple, Boston’s Weekly Dig, Curious Pictures, and The Learning Company.

In 2005 I finally left the sunny shores of California for the puddly streets of Portland Oregon, where I live with my wife Sarah Vendetti, working on various creative projects.
