The four main media/styles I work in: painting, drawing, woodcutting and muraling. I like detail and a large scale and work on many pieces at once so it feels pretty slow sometimes. I like hiding things in narrative landscapes. Open for commission :) and sales :) and donations ;)

‘Red Stairs’ was lost in the Pasadena fire. Not sure if that’s a sign to make more of this body of work or a sign to put it to bed

3rd woodcut block of this resurrected project :)
Started in 2005, in the rafters of my studio since. 20% completed, another 20% begun when I found it, got that 20% almost finished last fall :) it’ll make more sense all together, bear with me, thx

The extinct Moa lurking among the ferns :) huge & flightless New Zealanders, disappearing about 500 years ago :(

Next piece from 2005. Fits below the composition from previous post. I’ll be going back into these older woodblocks for continuity’s sake as I pick this project up again :)

Pictured: top middle image of composition. Caveman rides dinosaur, another w feathers, comets, lightning, glaciers, etc :)

Paintings from 2023 I took off my website for some reason. Dismantled a lot in 2024, reassembling for 2025 and trying not to fuss over how it fits together :)
