I freely admit that I am a bit of a misfit.

I am an artisan. I only became an artist when people watch what I do. That is when it becomes art.

Not to sound cliché or anything, but with the downtime that I have and the possible platform that my work could give me, I'd like to figure out a way to give back and make a difference, you know?
