about Bruce

Image of Bruce Heavin

I am a curious person who spends half my time in my head. I suffer from a heavy dose of curiosity. It isn’t enough to just know something to get by. I have to know how it works and that infects my thoughts down to the very core of my being almost to the annoyance of others around me at times. It isn’t enough to learn just common practical knowledge, but eccentric, mechanical, conceptual, & applicable means too. I love to photograph, draw, doodle, paint, and play with imagery. Illustration is a love of mine as I love boiling down stories, ideas, & situations into solid concepts. I love good puzzles & games that I can learn to game as a system.
