LaFramboise
Artist, The Executioner is a Lonely Man
Brian has worked in commercial art (in one form or another) since 1990... his first job was doing tape archive on 9 track tapes. Those are the ones that you see in the old movies spinning in the background and the super computers of a 1950's future. Since then, he's done plenty of retouching, desktop preparation, a bit of illustration, web stuff (not the design, just the guts), and a few interactive CDs. Outside of that, he's done comic work for various small publishers and a few small game companies. Now, he's trying my hand at holding onto the copyrights to my work and selling my pretty pictures through places like Cafepress and Dreamscapek9 Collectibles. Visit his website Diego Candia
