Lovecraft, Jim Henson, Terry Gilliam, Ray Harryhausen, Edward Gorey, and Aubrey Beardsley.-------------Why: In his precollege years, he was a graphic design artist for surf companies along the east and west coasts. Towards the end of his college career he put aside painting to pursue a career in the tattoo industry, and with the influence of his gracious mentor Deborah Oliveri (formerly Deborah Inksmith), he was able to gain a whole new perspective on art. His tattoo flash is displayed in over half the tattoo studios in the States and the UK. ---------------- In March 2001, Charlie formed a coalition of urban arts called The Box. As art director he helps support the local urban artists who are trying to display their new-style expressive art in the local community.
