Where does one begin when introducing oneself? I can begin by family background. My background is that of English and Maltese. Mother had grown up during World War Two. In Liverpool she had the chance to see this local band who had called themselves The Beatles. My father, also a child during WWII, was a professional soccer player in Malta. My parents met in New York at the famous Roseland ballroom.As old fashioned as it sounds, it was love at first sight.

Born and bred in New York City, I totally admit that I am a child of the 1980's. I grew up on a steady diet of old skool video games, New Wave, Gothic, 80's New Romantic stuff, Punk Rock. My musical tastes have now grown to in addition to other genres, such as Psychedelic, 70's Glam, Electronica, 60's Garage/Mod, Rockabilly, vintage Jazz, Oi!, Power Pop, Metal, what have you. I have even dj'ed a few rounds, spring 2004.

I was always into comics. When I was a kid, I first began with Harvey comics and Archie. I also read the daily newspaper strips, especially the Sunday edition. Was very into Peanuts, later on into Bloom County. Truly adored was the Hanna-Barbera cartoons such as The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Wacky Races, etc. Later on during my late teens I picked up on underground/alternative titles like Love and Rockets, Hate, and Joe Matt's Peepshow. In recent years I was introduced to Terry Moore's Strangers In Paradise. I wasn't always creating them however. I mostly focused on illustrations until 2003, when I orginally created Psycho Bunny. Psycho Bunny made his published debut in May 2004 over at the Hawthorne High School Comic Con in New Jersey. Babalon Babes was released late Fall 2004 in a NYC club party (M8).

My illustrations has also been published in various other forums. Over the years, my art has been featured in other publications, fanzines, websites, even CD covers. Besides dj'ing for a brief time, I did the movie/tv extra thing, did professional tarot readings, took on spiritual pursuits and traveled. At the present time I continue to work on a variety of projects between taking care of cats and throwing candy at strangers passing by...
