Jeff Iwanski lives in Lincoln Nebraska with his wife Deb and Beulah the dog. They are nice. He draws pictures and writes songs. Sometimes he draws songs. "Pinch me its Christmas" is based on a holiday song that he wrote and recorded with the rock and roll band Magma Melodier. He is proud of the song... it's a good one. 

“I grew up in Grand Island Nebraska. I always felt like I was a little different than everyone else my age, like everyone was on a different wavelength than me. I learned early that I could create my own way of seeing things through drawing. I guess it was a case of trying to fit in by being different…if that makes any sense. I realized I could make someone laugh or feel uncomfortable or even make someone mad by drawing a picture. When people started noticing, sometimes even praising something I drew, I felt like ‘OK, this must be what I'm supposed to be doing’.

I have my own set of rules that I apply to everything I do, and those rules change with each thing I make. I know something is right when it conforms to the rules, I establish at the beginning of the project … or maybe the ones I make up along the way.”
