I started doing digital art as hobby in 1994 and began professionally
creating digital art for profit in 1998. I served 5 yrs in the US Marine
Corps as an active Graphic Artist and I met my awesome wife Kathy
while training at the Defense Information School in Maryland. I worked
for several years for mulitple real estate magazines and started my
own graphic design business, Lucid Designs in 2004. My government
service had earned me VA GI Bill benefits and I wanted to use them
before they expired. In 2005 I started attending Full Sail University in
Winter Park, FL to learn the art of 3d.

My background in fine art and layout and design helped me tremendously
in almost all facets of 3d work. Most people will think 3d art is something
all to itself, but in reality it’s something built firmly on top of all the major
known artistic principles and disciplines.

I have been married to my wonderful wife Kathy for eight years and we
have an absolutely beautiful 2 1/2 yr old son, Logan. I was blessed to be
hired down here in Central Florida working for Firebrand Games as a
modeler, texture artist and environment artist. We work mostly on
Nintendo DS titles and are currently working on a Nintendo Wii project.
Working under such constraints really teaches one respect for the single
pixel. I find now when I am working with high resolution assets/textures
that I am wasting much less on the canvas or within the 2d space.
