Growing up I was inspired by cartoonist and writers like Jim Davis, Gary Larson and Shel Silverstine. The idea that someone could make a living by writing and drawing was fascinating. I was the art kid. Hung out in the art room. Loved the art teacher. Anything to do with drawing or painting I was there.

 

For college I took a more conventional path and got a degree in food and nutrition. But art and illustration was always my first love. Now-a-days I fit in artsy things whenever I can. Kids, family and life in general is pretty crazy but I wouldn't want it any other way.
