I’m not afraid of anything.

Oh. So you‘re a tough guy, eh?

No. I clean a lot of litter boxes and have that brain parasite that makes me stupidly unafraid of mortal peril.🤷🏻‍♂️

It's funny when you start looking through old work and realize, wow, I really like oranges and blues.

I've wanted to make animated loops for my illustrations for some time now. I've never done it because, honestly, by the time I'm done, I want to move on to something new.

Not this time though. Time for a test run. Enjoy.
