This is another for the "Cosmicomics" series. This is of my favorite character for Distance of the Moon, the captain's wife. The main character in the distance loved her, she loved the cousin, but the cousin loved the moon, so she resigned herself to becoming the moon.

Here is another piece for "Cosmicomics", and this chapter was called Sign in Space. It was my favorite chapter in that my brain had to work extra hard to understand it. The basic idea revolved around the first mark ever made, how it became the maker of the mark, and how each mark, or life form is getting lost among the infinity of all other marks. It was a lot of fun.

These two pieces are full page and a spot I did for "Cosmicomics", the chapter called "Distance of the Moon" which I really loved and had a fun time portraying.

I recently returned from a trip to Doha, Qatar. What an experience! I was especially influenced by all the Arabian line work and henna patterns, so I channeled it into one for my crow series.

This is a theatre poster that I did for Kimberly Akimbo. In the play she is fifteen with a fatal disease which makes her age like an old woman. At the climax she goes on a safari and is stopped in the road by a giant hippo, which becomes a metaphor for her disease and how it is the obstacle keeping her from a normal life.

Another one for my crow series. This was done on a new surface for me, yupo paper, very finicky but fun.

These are a spot and double page illustration I did for a fairy tale I wrote. In the story, the mythical spirit of Aurora Borealis is trapped by Winter inside of a glacier. All of the animals of the Arctic are trying to save her, but none make it except a small snow fox, who makes it to the glacier and through his love, he cracks the ice and sets her free. Awwwww.

This image is from a series I did for the story Thumbelina, an appropriate one for me:) In this image she has been lost after being kidnapped by the toads and is floating down the river. She comes upon a school of fish who help her find her way. This one was tough for me, I wanted to distort her figure in a certain way, keeping her torso longer than her feet, and still make it look normal, very hard indeed.
