About Me

I can still to this day remember the fear I felt as I worked with my first computer, figured for sure someone like me would just blow the whole thing up by touching it. But what happened was not the computer blowing up, instead it was my world that did. Don’t get me wrong here! It was not at all a bad thing. It was my world opening up to me for the first time in my life…

I live with what my Doctor calls dyslectic, I am not sure how he comes to that thought, I just thought my brain was wired up wrong. Add to that what the same Doctor calls agoraphobia, and then toss in a good sized dose of depression and anxiety… Wham!! now we have me…

Over the years working with the computer I have learned so much. I feel it’s much, much more than I ever got out of school, and I think it’s because once I found I could not break it. I also found I did not fear it. Its hell to learn from someone you are scared to death of, while sitting in a room full of other people you are just as scared of.

I have come a long ways since then. Ya I am still scared of people and places and things, I don’t think that will ever stop. Just as my depression will never leave me, and being dyslectic is a life time thing, but here on the internet as I sit safely at my computer, and with a great spell checker, and smart software like Microsoft Word. I am hoping to be able to share some of the things I have learned over the years. One of them is having a great passion for is Computer Graphics. Art done on the computer, and the design, and/or layout of Images that can be taken anywhere then used in your art on the computer.

I have enjoyed making images for a few years now, have tried doing many different types, but this year I have been truly blessed. My sister has many talents and one of them is writing, and thankfully she has been around to see my graphics, and she allowed me the honor of doing two of her book covers.
She is now working on the fellow up books, and it looks like I may get to do there covers also!!
