| I was born in Bathesda Maryland in 1969. My family was military, and we moved almost every 18 months. Needless to say, I did not have very many friends. Mostly because I was afraid to get attached to anyone, and then have to move. I got really into fantasy, and did lots of sketches, and drawings. Mostly of spaceships, and aliens. As I got older, I got into swimming, and a little bit of basketball. I joined the Navy in early 1988, and served aboard a couple of ships before entering Basic Underwater Demolition / Seal school. This is my minor claim to fame. Everyone talks about how tough it is. But I went into it with a good attitude. It was mind over matter, as the instructors would say. I didn't mind, so it didn't matter. At first you are hurting pretty bad. But you come to a place where endurance and mental attitude allow you to deal. "They can't hurt me anymore," You say to yourself. I wasn't a SEAL very long however, as I was injured both in the field, and on Interstate 5 in San Diego while on my Motorcycle. That was the final blow, and I was given the opportunity to get out or stay in. I opted to go to another ship, but after seven months, my enlistment was up, and I finally got out. That last little bit of time though, I discovered furry art, and it rekindled my art interests. Early on, I was very much inspired by Vicky Wyman, Terrie Smith, and Roy Pounds II. Lately, Dark Natasha, Megan Giles, and Werepuppy continue to inspire me on. Megan, and Natasha's art is so awesome! I heartily encourage any of you who have not seen their work to check them out! Thank you for helping to support my art by purchasing this disk. I hope you enjoy it, and will continue to enjoy stuff I put out! This disk is dedicated to my friends, Jack, Megan, Natasha, Aayrick, Werepuppy and everyone else who has been so kind to me over these last few years. Thanks guys! --Chris Sawyer October, 2000.
