About me:

I'm a native North Carolinian who, oddly enough, did not acquire a taste for NASCAR or ACC basketball. I make my living as a graphic artist and cartoonist. I grew up on a steady diet of Warner Brothers and Jay Ward cartoons, 3 Stooges, Mad Magazine and comic books, which I guess explains my career of choice.

I began drawing at the age of 3, usually in my older sisters' story books. My father, who was a professional musician and entertainer, started giving me his leftover handbills to draw on the back of, much to my sisters' relief. My father also gave me an appreciation of many musical genrés. My mother gave me an appreciation for history and tradition. Both my parents had a sense of humor, my dad's more silly, my mom's more sarcastic.

I've been in graphic arts entirely TOO long (working full time and freelancing at the same time) and now freelance for a variety of clients including Archie Comics, several educational resource publishers and design firms.

    U just gave me the ultimate compliment. She is so sweet you just can't imagine. Can u see the Native in her? She is Joey and Charity's baby. She is a girly girl. I love her so much and what is really strange to me is that she is so much like I was when I was a baby. I love her so much. I want to take her to the zoo this week so pray for me that it works out. I want her Momma to come too. She has a great Momma. Love you and thanx.
