Four Seasons of Meditation, with Paul "Sparkling Leopard" Henshall
Several years ago, when a friend was making her way through her dissertation, I made a series of extremely relaxing tracks for her to unwind to. Now on SoundCloud! Click here to enjoy.

RIP Henry (I)
I painted this portrait for a friend who recently lost one of her best friends. I met this guy one time, a truly mellow king of a soul. I actually didn't mean for this to be the final version - I started out with the face and ears in colored pencils on regular 11"x18" paper, then did some painting with acrylics to fill in the rest. I like the unfinished, messy quality of it, balanced with the concentrated detail of the face.
Rest in peace, Henry.
Rest in peace, Henry.

The Queen of Crows (I)
IT'S FINALLY HERE! Ladies and gentleman, the BEST month is back. To kick it off, here's my lovely mother all done up, Photoshop-style, as what I'm calling the Queen of Crows. I honestly didn't set out to make this picture quite so...elaborate, but isn't she amazing? Below are most of the various images that went into creating her (there were a few more crows, I think.) OCTOBER!!!!

Love/Sick Poster Design (GD)
Aaaaaand it's time for another poster for the Mira Loma Black Box Theater! Love/Sick is a play about love in nine parts, chronicling the arc of a relationship, from a first meeting to a divorce, with nine different relationships. In the nine years we've worked together, I've gotten to create designs for Waiting For Godot, She Creatures, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and All In The Timing.

Pegacorn Update! Now With Griffin! (I)
A friend commissioned a portrait of her baby with unicorns and rainbows, so I created THIS for her a few years ago. Now that baby is a little older and she has a brother, so this was created for the two of them. Yay sparkling mythological beasts in space!
