Who is this guy, anyway?

Oh, y’know, just some guy from the Chicago suburbs come to the Big City. I play video games, read comics, visit my parents regularly like the momma’s boy I am, and just spend time laughing with friends. I like to draw, that’s my schtick. Expressions and poses are my bread n’ butter. At its core, a lot of my art is wish fulfillment for the child I used to be. I grew up watching movies and shows about superheroes, seeing cartoons with distinct designs and fluid animation, reading comics with interesting stories that had fun banter, the usual. When I started drawing, I realized I could make things like that. And I had fun doing it, too. That’s what made me realize that being an artist is what I want to do for the rest of my life. That’s what I want my legacy to be. I want kids to grow up watching and reading the same things I did, because I helped make those things happen.

Wanna have a tiny version of me to carry around everywhere? Kinda weird, but okay! Print and cut him out like a Flat Stanley project for school!
