Glam Art Front Man
Semi-deposed prince and fancy boy - I've decided to be a rock star, artist, and whatever else I feel like. It can't be that hard, right?
ALL THE WORLD'S A STAGE AND YOU'RE JUST LIVING IN IT
Being
Star Sign: Leo
Height: 5'4" maybe
Hair: Big
Once I did a guided meditation to see a past life in a dream, and I dreamed I was a man in a pink, 1980's bridesmaid dress.
I was born on a Saturday in the past. I have previously been a two-time college dropout, a traveling wizard, a toy maker, the owner and operator of a small winery, an invertebrate psychic, an actor, a furniture funeral director, and a pajama model.
My techniques are primarily
self-taught and self developed. I believe that an artist's power is in the ritual of their process.
Opportunities for guided learning:
2019 - Advanced Concept Art Mentorship with Brandon Reimchen through CG Spectrum
2024 - Makeup Artistry program completion at Clary Sage Tulsa
