# About me
My Name is Justin Holman or "Holmes". I used to be the lead singer of a popular band signed to Epic records called REVIS. I have played on stage and toured with many amazing and talented artists such as Pearl jam, Linkin Park and Evanesence.. I live in Benton Ill. I am a professional Penciler, Inker, Painter and all around handy Guy. My passions are The Last Airbender, Futurama any type of anime and comic book, and lastly I am also obsessed with mech/biomech. My favorite Artists are Joe Mad, Bart Sears, Dustin Nguyen and David Finch, well too many to mention them all, but those guys, I love!!! No of that matters though compared to what I have to share next....I am a faithful servant of Jesus Christ, It is through him I am strengthened

Hey Justin, I'm a big fan of your music but a bigger fan of Christ. I was just revisiting your music and saw your wonderful story of being saved by God. In my spare time I write music and would love to share a few songs with you. You can reach me at absolutefreedomfromwithin@gmail.com look forward to hearing from you

But, nothing is better than hearing that you are saved! Praise the Lord! Our God is good!
You seem to be a great artist as well!😎

Hi Justin! My name is Apryl and I met you ions ago when Revis opened for Evanescence in Philly. We talked a bit and found out we have the same birthday (April 5th) I was reminiscing about my life lately, as I often do, listening to music I haven't heard in awhile and remembered that show & meeting you. You were such a nice person. Anyway, I too am a follower of Christ and have been pulled back from the world a bit I guess you could say.
So where did your screen name derive from? I live in a town in NJ called Ewing, which is kind of funny. Well, I hope life has been treating you kindly.

You were the singer of Revis?! That is my favorite band! Holy crap, man! I cannot tell you how much I relate to your songs, and how much they have impacted my own fictional works that I am making.

Hey,
So glad you found your art. I talked to Dustin the week after it happened and was so sad for you. But, it ended on a good note I see.
Take care

I like that, it's the mark of a true artist, constantly looking to grow in his work.
I'm a fraid I'm just a rookie, still much to learn. Hoping to get and do a portfolio course perhaps the year after next and then to Dundee Art College.
May I ask if you studied art in any shape or form?
I'm trying to decide what course will be best suited to what I want to go on to do.
Cheers,
J
