| Introduction | About me? Well… I work a lot, and I update at mykeamend.com more often than here. My day begins with me rolling out of bed and straight to my desk; Barring restroom breaks and eating (should I remember I am hungry), I stay there until 16 to 30-some hours later on the average - sometimes times curling up under my chair because by that point the floor looks incredibly cozy. I prefer to spend my time painting, yet a lot of additional hours go into things such as web work and web maintenance for clients or myself, and various side projects such as comic books and children’s books I am working on. I have been featured in art collections such as Gothic Art Now by Ilex Press, where I can be found alongside some of my favorite artists such as Giger, Brom, and Bajema. My art is an ooky spooky central part of a movie called “Quench” by Zack Parker. I have also been featured (as I am told) in Weird Tales Magazine, and cannot wait to see for myself in the Fall/Winter issue. Aside from these things some of my paintings and prints are owned by people I revere greatly: Voltaire, The Dread Captain Robert of Abney Park, Kaja and Phil Foglio, and others. |
