About me: I'm happily married and working in the field of construction at the moment.But i've always been an artist at heart.I'm just looking for the right niche for me to actually do something with what i really like to do,which is draw.Input,critiques,and advice is always welcome of course.Currently i'm working on a graphic novel about a sideshow that takes place in the mid 1920's,and also illustrating for a children's book.I'll post a few teaser finished pages of the children's book as soon as i get another working scanner.
Also,If ya haven't already,feel free to check out some of the extremely talented artists found in my friends list.
Who I'd like to meet:

This is were i force you to learn something new for the week ! courtesy of Wikipedia:
PISTOL-WHIPPING - To pistol-whip someone means to hit a person with the butt or barrel of a handgun (pistol), typically in the head or shoulder area. This is usually done in order to knock them unconscious or as a method of torture, sometimes to elicit information and sometimes to punish. A more archaic name for this maneuver is "to buffalo".Pistol-whipping is a well-known cliché in American popular culture, as it appears to be a simple method of asserting dominance.
20$ will be fine. but I would prefer it hand delivered, so you best come for a visit soon and play some guitar hero with me. Also you should clone your dog, cause all he will know is "ball, good,... and RAPE!"
Yeah,and 90% of people don't get it,i actually have to explain it to some people.I swear a few people thought it was something in another language"be-nonas tick?is that latin?..."
