# About me
I live in Northern Michigan and work in residential construction. I've never had any kind of formal training for drawing, I've just done it for as long as I can remember. Any info/advice on getting commissions (preferably conceptual art for films) would be really helpful and appreciated. If any of you are or know any film-makers, I would definitely like to start a correspondence if possible; not looking for any hand-outs, just have some questions.Aside from that, I'm glad you stumbled into to my gallery and hopefully you'll see something you like.

Certainly! I saw your work and became an instant fan; I too have a profound appreciation for the female form and am hypnotized by its unending beauty and allure. You are truly a master of your craft, and the models are themselves works of art as well!
Do you start your works by taking photos of your subjects?

Most of the time when I start a drawing I am drawing on some sort of photo reference, but not always. Many times I am using a photo of a car or person to establish some kind of proportion and I go from there.
Thank you.

Two of the drawings that I have here in my portfolio are actually my wife, although I am not going to say which ones. She is a good sport.
Thank you.

Understood I'd love to get a chance to work with live models but I'm sure I'd have to take a photo of them and use that for reference, since I don't think a person could stay in the same pose long enough. Plus, I'm sure I'd be too distracted as well!
