Thanks. It's basically charcoal on Mylar, a type of drafting film that has a smooth surface. If you wet the charcoal you can get some interesting streaking and smudging effects.
I was born in Boston, Massachusetts and presently I am living in the Pacific Northwest - Seattle to be precise, where I am teaching traditional and digital art at DigiPen Institute of Technology.
Prior to teaching here, I was a teacher and chairman of the Fine Arts Department at a private school in Boston.
I received my undergrad degree in Illustration from Massachusetts College of Art, and my grad degree in Illustration was completed at Syracuse University.
Although I'm devoted primarily to teaching, I occasionally exhibit my work and have had the opportunity to see my work in print as a graphic designer and an illustrator.
In 1999 I was an award winner in the Illustrators of the Future competition hosted by Bridge Publications in Los Angeles, California and in 2000 I was awarded Juror's Choice in the Falmouth Artists' Guild's fall, open juried exhibition. Since then I ain't won nuthin'.
Thank you and goodnight

I really like those skulls. What medium do you typically work in? I can't quite tell whether it's oils or not based on the photo.
