Just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who has faved my stuff over the last few months...Goalie masks have kept me pretty busy as of late so haven't had a chance to reply to everyone personally to each of them.

Been a long time since I put anything up as I have been busy getting my new/old business started again. Back in the mid-late 90's I worked for a few Goalie Mask (Ice Hockey) manufacturers as their designer/painter for their various masks. After a few years, I got smart and decided I could make more money and get more work if I went out on my own and sort of freelanced. Well, ended up doing that for about ten years before the market got saturated and I decided to get a "real job" ie it sucked! Blah Blah Blah fast forward to my current sucky job and I have decided (after convincing my wife I am always right) to re-open my shop/studio whatever you want to call it. So stay tuned, I will be posting some old school mask pics as well as some cool ones I am working on in the next few visits...Toodles

Nothing new to say, just tired of looking at my last journal. Job sucks...migraines really bad this winter...penis touches the water when I sit down on the toilet...same old same old. Will try and post more stuff soon, but headaches stop me from staring at screen for too long.

I recently got one of my pieces "faved" by a fellow Deviant, an as is custom, thanked them for doing so. In return I got a message asking me not to thank them as they find "self promotion" annoying.Is it me, or is this a little over the top. I was raised in a time when saying please, thank you and the like were just common practice ( and I am not much older than some of you out there, and would definitely not be considered an old guy) So please chime in so I can see if I am wrong...Does saying "thank you" make you an opportunist trying to get more page-hits, or merely show you have some manners? I would also like to say thank you for reading this and ask you to please be honest. Thank you

Well, I have to admit that I am a big nerd. Most of you know I am a fan of cheesy 80's metal, and you can see from most of my artwork, I likes the horror movies. I am also a big time collector of comic books (going on 20 some years now) as well as action figures and Hot Wheels. If any of you have gone to a decent comic book store you will probably have heard of Previews. This is what my best friend calls the Nerd Bible. Basically it is a huge catalog that comes out monthly that you can pre-order comics, toys, clothes etc., all from your local comic book store. Anyhow its really cool, and a while back i thought I would send some artwork their way and see what happens (13 year old fanboy like, I know)....anyhow, check this ouy, 4th one down...[link]
