| Introduction | Chris is a Florida native that has been scribbling on everything imaginable since he was old enough to hold a crayon without wanting to eat it. Chris is one of the few "old school" guys out there. Though he does digital illustrations and graphic design, he tends to lean toward traditional methods; arguing that digital works are nearly "soulless" and lacking in any real appeal. He is a strong advocate of anything hand-made and local. In a day where Adobe and overseas screen printing done with laser printers is all too predominant, this Mad Man is here to keep art and design from becoming stale and boring. He spends his time outside of working and art out on the water with his surfboard or kayak. When the waves aren't good you'll find him out on his bike or in the woods snapping photos of bugs and plants. This strong connection with nature has recently snuck it's way into his works. Where portraiture once reigned supreme as the dominant subject of his works now animal and plant life take over. |
