My parents had renditions of masterworks around our home and I was encouraged to pursue any creative impulse I had at a young age. My earliest influences were my father and brother. I still remember the day my dad showed me his cartoon drawings he did for his high school newspaper, and the pages of comic book illustrations my brother would create.
