I’m a born artist and musician. I have to create, no matter what. I’m here to entertain the world.

I've been a professional tattoo artist for the last 30 years (20 yrs. I've owned my own studio). I love to design and operate haunted attractions (I've done 2 in actual haunted locations). I make masks, corpses and creepy stuff. I've created movie car replicas (Bumblebee from Transformers and the Nova from Deathproof). I play various instruments, played in a few local bands and have recently started a new music project with my best friend and partner in crime. The list goes on, I love it all!!
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration everywhere, and at any given time. A lot comes from music. I grew up drawing, listening to music and playing drums. I've always had a million ideas flying through my head, so I don't have to look too far for an idea or inspiration. And I still have so many things I want to try and do, there will never be a dull moment in my life. Every form of art and entertainment literally IS my life. I love it all, and it all inspires me to create and share it with others.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it to fund my upcoming projects.
