My Bio
Current Residence: Basement apartment building in downtown Toronto
Favourite genre of music: Good old fashioned Rock'n'Roll. Clasic, punk, metal, it's all wicked awesome.
Favourite style of art: Pretty much everything, but graphic-novel format best. I know, it's my bias as a comics artist~

MP3 player of choice:
The MP3 brought to you by Steve Jobs

My how you've changed. I haven't uploaded anything in about two or so years. I plan on maybe changing that, so at least to catalogue and showcase my work properly now that I'm close to venturing out into the real working world. I know, gross. Anyways, this means I have stored away all of those tarnishing files of crap-tacular demonstartions of my previous work. An artist will never be satisfied with what they've done; only what they're doing. I haven't deleted them, solely for the purpose of looking back at them from time to time to see how much I've improved, as I have in just a year and more's time. I look forward to any feedback I get by

Whelp, it costs money to change your DA name (which is a HUGE step forward from not being able to at all), but I don't have a credit card to do it with. I want to change my DA name to something a little more business like, so it looks a little better when I'm trying to get a job in the professional illustration industry. T8rtoes just isn't cutting the cheese anymore; So I gotta make a couple of decisions, and I would like a little help with them. I can do one of two things:  Pay for a premium membership with money I don't really have...  Switch to a new account and go through a whole ton of crap to do it... Also, I need to decide on a p

Thank you for the +fav
You are most welcome! Your work is quite lovely.
Hey I went to Max the Mutt open gallery and saw your sketches and it was amazing. All your stuff is amazing, and you are practically an inspiration to me because I'm striving for the comic/graphic novel industry and a huge fan and also love doing the whole sketchy-style.
Just dropped by here to say you are pretty darn brilliant ouo
Oh wow, thank you!
If you saw my work then I'm sure you took a gander at a load of the rest of my graduating class. Lots of hard working, inspirational, seriously skilled people in that group that I could not have gotten to the level I'm at without them. 

I wish you well in your endeavors into the comics world! It's a lot of fun, and I look forward to producing more work and things to publish soon. Draw what you like, no matter what, and always look to keep learning! I'm so excited to see/be a part of the new comic growth here in Canada/North America.

Have a great day, and happy drawing!
Yeah there was a lot of amazing art, it was phenomenal
Thanks!! And thanks for your encouragement
I look forward to more art from you as well!
