SCHOOL-

Bristol Community College,Fall River,Ma-art transfer program under Marion Wilner

Swain School of Design,New Bedford,Ma-painting major under Severin Haines,Bejamin Martinez and David Loeffler Smith

Sin On Skin,Tiverton,RI-tattoo apprenticeship under Phillip Girard with a lot of help from Aaron Marco,Chuck Gibson and Ray Smith.And Peter Bergeron taught me a whole hell of a lot about my machines!!

WORK-

Trilon,Swansea,Ma.-two years-screen printers and complete psychopaths(with all due respect)-I did more design work than printing.Once got to help a mercenary move in New Hampshire.That was fun.

Riverside Art,Somerset,Ma.-three years-I was a bit of a jack of all trades here but,mostly a clerk as it were.I include it because,while it wasn't necessarily a job creating art,it was,and still is,a place where you can always find a ready pool of really talented artists.The owner also allowed us to take as many side jobs creating art for customers as we wanted as a service to them and without demanding a percentage from us.All in all,a very cool place.Thanks Bob!!

Imprints,Swansea,Ma.-screen printers-again,no actual printing,but lots of design work.

Fall River Herald News,Fall River,Ma.-editorial cartoonist,two years-must have pissed off the right people because,after two years,the editor told the editorial page editor,'No more!!',and that was the extent of the explanation.I did what I got paid to do...and,to this day haven't gotten an explanation-I think I would've been happier with a you suck response-in hindsight,those last few months did include attacks on the mayor,the city council,Fall River's infamous defrocked pedophile priest-Father Porter(who apparently was a good friend of said editor who had once been a priest himself-oh yes...),the police department,the fire department and so on.Hey,if they weren't all so fucked up I wouldn't have had anything to do my cartoons about.

Sin On Skin,Tiverton,RI-tattoo parlor,five years-one hell of a ride.I'll leave it at that.(samples of some of my work and more info on the'paintings and other art'page)

Dark Side Ink,Fall River,Ma.-screen printer extraordinaire-I hooked up with this guy during my stint at Sin On Skin and he lives to do what he does!!He IS the dark side.When he approached me about doing some designs for him I had to say,'Hell yeah!!',didn't want to piss off any of the minions.
