Who is ArtShowRoadie?!
From Roadie to Artist
I've been doodling and creating for as long as I can remember. In 2014, I started dating Lisa Diamor, a professional artist who makes her living traveling the art festival circuit. I became her roadie: loading trucks, setting up tents, tearing down booths, and learning everything I could about the art world from the inside.
In 2020, I had a stroke—a wake-up call that took six years to hear. In 2026, after three decades in the tech world as a Business Analyst, Consultant, Project Manager, and Director, I finally made the leap to full-time artist.
Now I wake up at 2 am, not thinking about challenging clients or derailed projects, but asking myself: "What am I going to create today?" It's a little bit scary and feels absolutely right.
I work with vintage paper, ephemera, comics old and new, found toys, paint, and resin—mixing techniques and materials like a kid who gets to play all day. Because that's exactly what this is: permission to play, create, and explore without limits.
I hope you'll grab a cup of coffee, browse a while, and maybe I'll see you at an art show this summer.
