Ever since I saw my first monster movie as a kid, I wanted to make monsters. Sure, every kid wants to make monsters, but I really wanted to make them. I drew a lot as a kid, and I would give my left foot to have all those drawings I did as a kid, back in my hands. My friend, Scott and I would draw these detailed underground dungeons where little stick figures would be fighting all manners of creatures, and always at the bottom of the page, was a huge dragon of some sort, chomping away at fearless warriors. We were always in competition and I remember the day he drew a dragon with two heads. Whoa...

Needless to say, our "talents" were not so appreciated by our teachers.I kept drawing through high school, but as I got older, I was designing instead of drawing. I was working, instead of wondering. Well, that time has come and gone. I'm going to be making monsters again. But this time, I'm sculpting them.

This is my first attempt: I drew this Orc for a project (check it out in my Illustrations section of my portfolio), and I decided it would be a fitting model for my first sculpt.

I'm so hooked. You'll probably start seeing more postings of sculpting on this site now. I'm still designing and I will still updatemy portfolio from time to time, but sculpting may get the front page placement for the time being.

Stay tuned.
