NSEW Ad Infinitum, an Infinite Circle of Music Production & Design.

My name's Dontez. I'm professionally, and very personally known as "Zen", for 30 years. In 1995, Neighborhood Shaman Essential Works, NSEW abbreviated, was established as a Sole Proprietorship. NSEW signifies the four major directions, North/South/East/West, and also another way of spelling "Enso", a Japanese word meaning "circle" and Zen precept. Now, NSEW Ad Infinitum (Infinite Circle) is the brand for all works, music and art, from lyrics and production, to graphic | web design and video editing.

I have over 20 years professional artist experience, ranging from doing pencils and inks for companies such as Warner Bros, Disney Imagineering, and Marvel Comics, painting canvases and commissioned walls, to creating hand-drawn tee designs for Self Apparel, Activ Eclipse and Five-7 Clothing companies, in addition to storyboard experience.

In addition to that, I have 25 years Graphic Design experience, from the Aldus Pagemaker, QuarkXpress, Corel Draw and Photoshop 3(!!) days. Web Design & Development since 2003. HTML, CSS, Java/Actionscript, J-Query, some PHP. Creative Suite proficient. (AE, AI, AU, DW, FL, PR, & PS...)
