Illustrator
Self-taught, using the Andrew Loomis method, Atari Dakota illustrates graphic novels. Atari is currently working on a series of stories that describe a path of vengeance taken by a Los Angeles renegade who goes on a trail of retribution across the city, visiting old acquaintances to deliver a powerful message of hope, fear, and karmic re-balancing.
Writer
Atari Dakota is a writer of renegade-outsider fiction. Currently, Atari is working on a sound-scape audiobook that explores the challenges of deep-space flight and the distortions in reality that may psychologically challenge astronauts during a mission to distant galaxies. The book wrestles with themes of power, centralized-control, and resistance.
Storyteller
Atari Dakota emerged from the American tradition of shamanic storytelling; an art-form where the storyteller's intent is to guide the gathered-tribe into a deeper confrontation with those aspects of itself that require urgent attention. Storytelling is the strongest antidote we have to the mass-delusion that assaults a society in the absence of self-reflection.
