Born in Providence, RI 1974
Derek is a New England native and has been drawing since the age of
four. Following in his brother's footsteps, he began drawing his own comic books and creating characters ever since. Unlike them however, he refused to grow up, and is still doing it today.
While he does have his degree in graphic design, most of his artistic skills are self-taught. Drawing from a variety of childhood influences that include Godzilla movies, comic books, Star Wars, Saturday morning cartoons and various cinema, Derek enjoys paying homage to these ingredients in his various works. Many of his original art can be found
on his personal website and his Deviant Art profile.
Residing in Southern California with his wife and daughter, Derek works as a Graphic Designer and formerly under the banner of Afro 'Stache Studios, helped co-create and illustrate the comics, Poverty Pack and Poverty Thrill Adventures.
Now venturing out on his own, he writes and illustrates "The Maroon" under his Owl Eye Comics production.
