Well I guess I should start with the most important thing to me and that's my faith in Jesus Christ. I won't get all preachy, but that's the first thing I want anyone to know about me. I'm a professional artist who renders images onto tombstones, black granite primarily, by a process called "etching". I dabble in most artistic media including: writing, music (writing and singing), theater, and most mediums of visual. I love musical theater and am happily married to my wife Kayla and have one son. I recently finished the script and msic for my first full-length stage musical - a work 15 years in the making - and am now beginning the process of arranging the score. Whether or not it will ever see a stage is anyone's guess, but at least I will be able to say that it was finished. I DO have a couple of theaters locally who've shown an interest in perusing the final product for a possible run. So here's praying for that to come about. I thrive on communication, so feel free to write and I ope you enjoy the work you see on my page. -- Mike
