Hi! My name's Chris. I've lived in Los Angeles for 16 years. I 'm originally from the north side of Columbus, OH.
I was a child in the 1970s and a teenager in the 80s.
I'm single right now, but I'm in love with someone and it feels great!
I'm a creative writer and artist and have shown my work in galleries in Los Angeles. Check out my art here.
I'm also a contributing editor for the popular art blog Daily Dujour.
I like graphic novels, Christmas, tide pools, grilled cheese sandwiches, reading, biker moustaches, football (Ohio State and the New Orleans Saints), sea monsters, painting, pine trees, bookstores, tennis, going to the gym, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Cricket Magazine, gloves with the fingers torn off, dudes, ladies, dudes, Maya Rudolph, Kristen Wiig, illustration, rugby players, Trina Schart Hyman, Stephen King, horror films, Hillary Clinton, film history and unexplained phenomena.
I blog about illustration, painting, Atari, Christmas (all year), books, style and pop culture/tv/cinema/design/video games from the late 1970s and early 80s. And assorted other stuff!
