I love to draw, been doing it since I was about 4 years old. It never gets old or boring for me. It started with pencils and crayons, then colored pencils, markers and paint. Now it's pen and ink with some digital colors to make the art come to life. Art might as well be my middle name. For me though, art is life and through the good times and bad times, it helped me focus that no matter what, no one would take that away from me. I currently use Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Dreamweaver for website creation and Painter 12 for digital coloring and enhancement. I paint and sculpt on occasion and sell pieces online and at art shows. I've also recently worked in TV and movies. I've been an extra on 'Friday Night Lights' and the independent film 'Two Pints Lighter' as well as featured as a police sketch artist on the Travel Channel's 'The Dead Files' on the episode 'The Devil Made Me Do It' which was shot in Asbury Park, NJ. I'm currently making a TouTube series called The Art Former, time-lapse drawings that showcase my talents. You can find it here:https://www.youtube.com/user/optimus8404I knew early on that I had a talent for art and that I would make a living from it. To this day I am still learning and and adding to my style and skills. I wish to provide and contribute my active experience to the benefit of the organization. I feel my combined skills related to computer technology, writing skills, artistic ability and creativity should help me in contributing in the growth of the organization.See my written and drawn comic here:http://optimus8404.deviantart.com/gallery/36457300
