I do not plan to upload images here frequently. To see more images and video, please visit my website, My Wicked Armor.
My artistic interests are wide and varied but costuming seems to be a primary passion. I can rarely watch a film or play a videogame without finding new inspirations. I want to make them exist in the real world, and time is really my only limitation. I have an absolute passion for solving technical artistic problems, and there are always new technical challenges in sculpture and costuming. I am big fan of the expanded Star Wars universe, especially KotOR and TFU, as well as many other sci-fi and fantasy games/films.
I am primarily self-taught as an artist but with some formal art education including a Bachelor's in Fine Art with a specialization in sculpture (UCF). I also have a Bachelor's in Physics (USF) and have taken many grad school courses in both subjects. I taught physics classes at UCF and USF and currently work as a graphic designer.
I am in my early 30's and have lived in Florida most of my life. I have broad interests including art, music, science, invention, and creative writing. I consider myself a student of nature. My biggest heroes are Carl Sagan, Beethoven, Da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, Galileo, Einstein, Darwin, Democritus, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and Mark Twain. All creative, original, and free-thinking people are an inspiration and a hero to me, especially those who challenge the status quo and charge ahead.
Thank you for visiting my website and for taking an interest in my artwork.
