Background story:
"I started doodling when young and haven't stopped since.
I do it because I love doing it and there's little else I can do."
Current projects:
"They are all top secret!" =)
Future dream:
"The football team I support winning the league
and to continue drawing and being involved in cool projects."
Favorite artist:
"Dom Del Torto (but only because he's quite tall)"
Message to young artists:
"Keep doodlin' all day and all night
and things will turn out alright!"
