Hullooo new followers, and old alike! This is me! I make art happen, sometimes on paper, sometimes on people.
The thing that terrifies me the most about our current times is the rapid extinction of the concept of truth. “Truth”—especially “photographic truth”— has always been a tricky term but we’ve generally been able to come to some sort of consensus about what is real and what isn’t. 1/4

I’ve been largely out of commission for a while between travel and illness and then a nasty open tib-fib break but I’m finally finally getting back to it.

I’m having trouble finishing anything that’s not explicitly for a client these days but here are a couple of things that are quasi-finished.

This 15-year-old piece never got finished to the client’s satisfaction so she came to me to give it some life.

Undiagnosed autism is spending your whole life doing things that make you uncomfortable or that are just not "you" (conforming) to avoid being mistreated (bullied) until you're so good at it that when you finally do get diagnosed, people around you don't believe you.

Hi #portfolioday! I'm a tattoo artist in Portland Ore. by day and a colored pencil/watercolor artist the rest of the time. Although truthfully I'll work with just about any medium.

I’ve designed a new anti AI sticker based on my piece “Kalopsia,” which was created to illustrate the grave concerns around the environmental impact of unregulated generative AI.
These stickers are 100% made by me, so you know you’re supporting a human artist with your advocacy too. 💜
