Biography: We’ll I guess I should start where I started. I was born down in the warm state of Florida right outside the great city of Tampa Bay. When my mother’s parents died we did a “vertical flip” (hah… photoshop joke) and moved up to Michigan. So I went from warm waters and being near Cuba to FREEZING winters and seeing Canadians all the time. I’ve always been interested in art but I never really became that involved in it until a few years ago where I started to explore photoshop and other similar programs. I started out in Paint.NET and then moved on to GIMP. After that was Photoshop and Illustrator. I’ve been teaching myself all this stuff for about two years now, plus side is that I’ve taught myself so that help’s me teach other people because I knew first hand what was helpful and what kind of stuff I would have wanted when I started, but at the same time there are lot’s of little concpets and things I missed because I’m doing this all on my own.

All the same, I love photoshop, I love art, and I love the comminity and the people I find here and all over the web.
