Bio
Alex Rodriguez is a pizza slinger with delusions of grandeur. He’s a freelance artist, doing portraits of friends and clients. Born in Cuba and raised in Miami, Alex currently resides in Seattle with his faithful flying squirrel Zoe. Like Zoe, he’s constantly flying from one place to another.


Inspiration
Some of the things Alex can’t work without are Barq’s root beer, his scrathched cd collection, stacks of art books, and constant distractions. Andrew Wyeth’s Helga Pictures remains his true inspiration, his Bible.


Tools of the Trade
Five, ten, fifteen, twenty...god knows how many he goes through each night. One thing's for sure, Barq's isn't going out of business any time soon.
Andrew Wyeth, John Singer Sargeant, Mike Mignola, Phil Hale, Hiroaki Samura
Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Skid Row - he hates. The Cure, Modest Mouse, and Bjork seem to do the trick.
Sure she shits turd-pellets all over Alex's drawings, but who cares. Alex fuckin' steps all over them anyway. Zoe is to Alex like Robin is to Batman.
He hates sight-seeing. He hates tourists. But loves to travel. He's rarely in one place for too long.
Nothing is quite as important to Alex as his friends and family. What the fuck?
