I'm an illustrator, specializing in CD art, an art teacher, writer, video game designer and music fanatic. I am also the webmaster for the ProgRock Plus web site with over 70 progressive band biographies, as well as reviews and interviews. Ad-free, the site has been maintained since 1999 to simply promote creative music to a sadly too non-creative world. In addition, I am the webmaster of a 155+ page pertaining to one of the grandest human achievements- the 1904 World's Fair. Enjoy.




IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, MESSAGES AND COMMENTS SHOULD BE PERSONAL, NOT JUST A CHAINED AD. ANY MESSAGE SELLING THEIR WARES OR THINKING I'M GOING TO POST YOUR AD, WILL BE IMMEDIATELY DELETED.
