I was always fascinated with creepy creatures and monsters as a kid. So, drawing them constantly seemed like the natural thing to do.  

 

 

Who is your favorite skateboarder, living or dead? Any ties to skateboarding?

 

I used to spend every free minute of my time skateboarding. These days I try to get some sessions in during the Summer but sadly, it's not as frequent as I would like. There was never one particular skateboarder that I favored..... some that I really loved were Natas, The Gonz, Eric Koston, Pat Duffy, Rodney Mullen and Chad Muska.
