(ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚♥ Happy Mermay! 🧜‍♂️

General / 02 May 2020

This piece was started on Isabela Island in 2008, after reading Galapagos by Kurt Vonnegut. It’s a fictional story about the last fertile remnants of humanity surviving on a small island and slowly evolving into sea mammals.

Kurt’s description of their “sealion-like” features was so fascinating I HAD to draw it right then and there, and ever since then it’s remained an unfinished sketch. But a friend of mine liked it and encouraged me to submit it to Art Order’s publication, Beneath The Waves, so… here it is!


And now Beneath the Waves: A book of merfolk mythology  is finally being made! And it looks like it's going to be a crazy gorgeous art book. The Kickstarter will officially go live on May 4th! So if you’re interested in supporting a massive school of artists head on over to Kickstarter and Click Notify!

Back to Tradition(al)

General / 29 December 2019

This year I’ve been making an effort to work with pencil more. And if you’ve also been working almost exclusively on the computer, you probably know just how paralyzing starting on the first blank page in a fresh sketchbook can be.

But something I found really helpful is to just close your eyes and aimlessly mark the page. Seriously. Show that pristine blank page who’s boss by scribbling all over its clean white face. It’ll remove so much of the pressure of “what should be on the first page of the new book.” All the ideas you’ve been wanting to mark down will no longer be warring over which is most worthy of going first, because none of them will have that honor! :D What you draw out the scribbled mess will!

And this stupid griffin-thing had mine.✏️

This has been my “You probably already knew this but I wanted to talk about it in case it helps somebody PSA.™”

A commissioned gift that I started on Twitch but finished off-stream when it got closer to (last) Christmas to avoid spoiling it for the group it was intended.

A tribute

General / 02 January 2019



Finally colored this as a tribute to the dark times. When this screen was the unholy gatekeeper of all that is good and fun. But I’ll never see it again because I finally got around to updating my phone… so… onward to brighter days!

🎉HAPPY NEW YEAR FOLKS!!! 🎏

Yep, You can watch me make art and be terribly awkward on Twitch...

Story time!

General / 23 August 2018


A few years ago when I was resting on a bench outside a con after-party, I spotted a Bahaman Anole carcass… a fresh one! Usually when I find dead lizards they’re already mummified but this one was actually fresh. Fortunately I had my sketchbook with me and after all these years finally gave this poor guy some wings.
