Fishing Trip, Hunting, Travel -

So my buddy Chris and I had planned to make a Cast and Blast trip up to Louisiana for some duck hunting and redfishing. But when the week arrived, a cold winter blast had just passed through Louisiana, and was headed towards Florida. We contemplated what to do, and decided to stay in Florida and hunt the East Coast. So we set our sights on making our way to Merritt Island, to hunt the refuge in the morning, then look for redfish in the afternoon. The weather forecast had said it would rain through the night, then stop early and...

When Scott from Sarasota Florida contacted me about doing a custom piece for him of some Wood Duck decoys in a Texas rig, I was intrigued. I've drawn many things throughout my life, but a decoy was not one one of them. So I hit the drawing board with some pen and prismacolors and got to work. My first piece of 2018 was a blast.

Ever since I was a child, I was always attracted to classic cars. I remember the first time I saw a 1964 Chevy Impala SS. I was walking down the road with a couple friends and we make a turn and hear this monster rumbling down the road. It was a white 64 SS Hot Rod built by a shop that was called "Bad Toys for Big Boys". Throughout the years, I've always dabbled with cars. A family friend used to keep his 55 Chevy Bel Air coupe in our yard, so it's safe to say I have always been...
