Who is the artdude you ask? Well, he is a Painter and a Printmaker
He was an illustrator, art director, and photographer back in the days of "pen & ink" and "film cameras" (remember those)? LMAO His photos have been published in numerous magazines and was a staff Illustrator for the legendary EASYRIDERS magazine for many years. He now paints with acrylics and still loves to draw. He also produces monotypes and limited edition prints. When he was very young, the artdude received a Jon Nagy "Learn to Draw" art set for his birthday. Since then, he has been learning a little bit more about drawing every day.
He is considered smart, creative and loyal, and expects no less of his friends. He can party with the best, but would prefer to be out on one of his bikes cruising in the wind. A pack of 100+ or just solo is cool. Let's RIDE !
He is what you might call a gentleman. Beware citizens, as he quickly grows tired of idle gossip and has a zero tolerance for DRAMA. He can be the best friend you ever had, but won't let the door hit him in the ass on his way out either.
Now that we have that all squared away, please take a minute to view some of artdude's photos & artwork here on BON. If you have any questions, please feel free to email the artdude. He will respond. Take care,
