Fluffly things


"Feather Island"
22" x 12" Pen and photoshop

This is another assignment of mine- a spread for a fictional excerpt about a strange island inhabited only by women who are born from bird eggs and grow feathers for hair. Their queen is born from a phoenix egg of course, so she can keep being reborn as a queen forever. Not completely happy with how the pen merges with the digital style, but I like the feel of it so far.

Happy Halloween


This is a poster I made for my digital illustration class. There a a few problems I still need to fix, but I think it came out alright. This isn't my typical style, working with shapes more than detail, but it was pretty fun to do. Happy Halloween!

Checker Bowl


Wheel Thrown Red Art Clay,
Cone 4 Majolica and Mason Stain

Here is one of the first bowls I have ever made on the wheel. The glazing isn't picture perfect but I do enjoy seeing the colors and contrast of the patterns come out so vividly. That only means that I must keep trying!

New and Unproven


9" x 12" Digital Painting.
Another piece with a boat. Seems I can't get away from water.

Pirate Rupunzel



Character Sketch and Final of a Book Spread Illustration.

This is my own adaptation of the classic fairytale Rapunzel. My story goes like this: Rapunzel and her parents used to be mermaids. She of course was given up to Mother Gothel when she was a baby. When she grows older and realizes Gothel is not her mother, she turns Rapunzel into a human so she cannot look for her parents or seek revenge upon her. Still determined, she becomes a pirate and lives on her ship, searching the seas every day.

The rest of my story is a secret. (Until I make this into a full-time book that is (; )

The 1969 Camaro


Here is my latest work, something just for fun: It is a 4 foot x 5 foot oil painting, which is a lot bigger than what I am used to but nevertheless a success in my book. My original idea was to make this into a cubism of the 5 generations of the Chevrolet Camaro, adding one generation at a time. I may just leave it be, however. Honestly, who doesn't like 1969 Camaros?

Sunrise




11" x 15" Watercolor

I based this painting off of a sunrise I saw back home over winter break. I am planning on making more pieces similar to this in the future.
