Interview by

:icongraphix86: asked me the following questions...
1- When did you find out about DA?
I found out about dA from a friend of mine (Senecal) back in 2006. I signed up then, but really did not become active until later on. Once I got started, I could not stop, ya know. I love this site. Work has kept me from being as active as I once was, but I try to keep up.

2 - What has inspired you to do your artwork?
Life. Emotions. My environment. Fascination with chaos. The universe. It is hard to explain, I guess. I just get sad if I am not creating something, and what I like to create the most is paintings. I mostly do abstract, as you know, but I have a lot of ideas for figurative work bouncing around in my brain all the time.

3- Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
Hmmm...not sure if I will be living where I am, although I have some pretty deep roots here. In case you did not mean that literally, I hope to be painting for a living. It is a long shot, I know. But I can always hope. Otherwise, it would be great to be running my own design house with some friends, or being part of that. Being an art director somewhere would be nice, too.

4 - What are your hopes for the future?
To continue to create art and happiness. Pretty simple.

5- Do you believe the rumors about 2012?
Not really. But I do believe parts of the media are taking full advantage of it. Or, I dunno, maybe a huge asteroid is headed for us.

Now, if you would like me to interview you, just respond to this journal. Then you would answer the questions in your journal and pass it on, etc.

Please Help

I would be HONORED, and APPRECIATIVE, and LOVE YOU, and think YOU ARE AWESONE, if...
