I live just outside of a very lovely touristy town, and last summer I felt compelled to make a hyper-local (and hopefully amusing) souvenir for the sweet folks who come through and see my work.
For some reason it took me until now to finally colour it and have it made, but they're here!

A recent commission. How happy I was to be asked to draw a spooky fishing cove. Being surrounded by them was certainly helpful for inspiration.

I crowdfunded an oracle deck a while back and the first run is very close to sold out 🤯🤯🤯 With just a few left, I'm planning my next moves.

I worked through my feelings the day I found out we lost him. There will never be another David Lynch, this much I am sure of.

I was unaware of what was happening when I drew this two weeks ago. Saddened and sickened by the news, I hope that my illustration can stand apart from its creator.
