=================================================
---------------------------------------------------
Hi! I'm the Singer/Guitarist for SKOOKUM
------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------
I'm also a successfully self-employed visual artist and cartoonist. Check out the ol' bio and site: Corycatures
------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------
Born in Surrey, British Columbia on January 3rd, I spent the better part of my childhood reading comic books and listening to music. I took up the guitar in the teen years, and went on to study Fine Arts at Kwantlen University College. Having found my true calling, I continued an education in art, and in the year 2000, graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design. ------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------While both passion and talent cover a broad range of artistic disciplines ranging from painting, printmaking and drawing in a variety of mediums, to comics, cartoons, animation, and web graphics, my artistic groove comes shinin' through in caricatures and comic strips.
------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------
Since leaving Emily Carr, I have become an accomplished caricaturist and cartoonist, with a unique ability of catching one's personality as evidenced by the many conventions, weddings, parties and other events I've been asked to attend, much to the pleasure of the guests.
------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------
Currently, you can see my cartoon art at the site for Big Kahuna Sports! This bi-weekly series follows the ongoing saga of Mel Schlick and the mystical Hawaiian mask he discovers, which transforms him into the Big Kahuna (www.bigkahuna.ca)!I'm also singer/songwriter/guitarist with SKOOKUM, Vancouver's own 'Wall o' Rawk', of which I'm a founding member.
