Biography

"Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers." The Cigarette-Smoking Man "The X-Files"

Yep, that pretty sums it all up. ;-)

In reality, I am an insane biochemistry major who somehow finds the time to draw when I'm not in lab or class. I mostly work in pencils, charcoal, and pastel and have recently ventured into ink. I love doing portraits, simply because there is so much that can be expressed in the human face.
