- I'm currently taking more commissions. Here's my latest. This ink piece with multiple beasties was $400. DM me if you want something like this.
- Still kicking around with Terry Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters in my spare time. Would love to do a graphic novel about them. #terrypratchett #discworld
- Toying with the idea of a San Francisco-themed sticker set. But I'm planning other backgrounds as well.
- My friend Dan Brereton took the American pulp style, and made it his own weird, unique thing. He's the most talented writer/artist I have the privilege to call friend. He's currently running a Kickstarter for a new art book to show off the visual half of his amazing talents. bit.ly/nocturnals31
- Princess Ugg. I'm thinking of this for a sticker. But I think it may need a background.
- Here's the color version of my D&D character commission.
- Working on a commission for a client's D&D character, something need to do more of. It's so much fun. Here's the inks. Will add color later today.

- More sticker ideas. I'm not sure if the Courtney is too slumped. I just loved her attitude. What do you all think?
- I'm thinking of doing sets of stickers. It's a matter of finding the perfect image that sums up the story, or tells a story in a single image. Working on it.
- Witch For Hire. One day, I'd love to take a crack at volume 2.
- Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone. To call her captivating doesn't even touch the layers of emotional complexity, piling heartbreaking ferocity on top of aching fragility. It's truly a tour-de-force performance, that I could never hope to capture with ink and watercolor, but you gotta try.
- I remember years ago, the magnificent Charles Vess once mentioned in an interview that he preferred drawing trees to people. At the time, I didn't understand, but now I can't get enough of those lovely, twisty, spooky but beautiful living shapes. This one is definitely made for color.
- It's kind of a joke cover, with my little tween goth curmudgeon framed in a classic hero pose like a Frank Frazetta character. But I love that kind of thing, so as with everything I do, no matter how silly, I definitely mean it sincerely. And the colors came out pretty nice.
- Every time I put paint to paper, I get anxious that I'm going to ruin a perfectly good ink drawing. But I feel this one came together. What do you think? This 12"x16" piece is $400, if you're interested in buying it. Contact me in the DMs.

- I've never been 100% happy with my covers, especially when they have multiple elements. So this one is practice. It's definitely gonna get the watercolor treatment.
