My name is Mike, I am a retired soldier. I have a beautiful wife who blesses me everyday, and three wonderful boys that make me proud. I grew up in San Antonio Texas. I have been into art all of my life, but I really started taking it seriously for the past few years now. I illustrate for two military magazines, it keeps me drawing and helps get some exposure, which I guess all artists hope for. I have no formal training in any medium, I learned it all by myself, so far I specialize in graphite (my first love) colorpencil, watercolor and pastel. I mostly draw for myself and I love to see other artists work and even collect a few pieces. But I will never forget that my talent is a blessing from God, I will give Him all the glory He so rightfully deserves. If you wish to contact me about this site or have questions or comments please feel free to contact me at: warriorartist@hotmail.com
