Physicist though he was, my father was also a photographer and a poet. I had to laugh at him when he wondered why I ended up as a creative and not as a physicist, when my earliest memories are of going through all the slides he took when he was in Korea.

My first camera was a Kodak Instamatic that I stole from my mother's desk drawer when I was 12. I bought my first Pentax K1000 when I was 14 and haven't looked back since.

At 15, I began painting.

I've picked up arts the way some people pick up bad habits, and for much the same reason: the deep satisfaction of them.

I haven't gone to school for any of it. They're just in me. I've learned technique from other professionals and other creatives, wherever I can find it, hell, off the graffitti I see in downtown LA.
