Interview
 

How did you become a designer/artist?

Well I have always doodled and drawn pictures growing up, later when I moved to Los Angeles I got into graffiti, not tagging my name but more like pictures, characters and stuff like that.

What are you doing now?

Snowboarding as much as possible, working on designs for my clothing line (Tech Vector | Designs ) slapping my stickers on anything and everything, looking for intelligent people to work with.

Where are you from orginally?

I was born in Big Sur, California, moved to LA when I was 13...then to Oregon when I was around 19 -20 when shit got hot in the city.

What are your plans for the future?

Buy a house with an acre or two of land, go to art shows, play more music...I play flamenco/ Spanish classical guitar but I've been slacking for a long time...gotta get back into it.

What American artist inspires you most?

Frank Frazetta is amazing, Kevin Hulsey is also really inspiring...there are so many...I would say there's not one that inspires me most but a lot of artist's I draw inspiration from...

What unlocks your creativity?

That's a hard one...I'm not sure really...sometimes ideas just start raining down in buckets at strange times...like talking on the phone or whatever...I'll have to be like "hey can you chill for a second?", put em on hold for a sec and write stuff down, just to keep the idea's around...I think it's really important to get your ideas down when they come to you...in music especially.
