Beauty is everywhere. Fantasy is in all of us. We were all children once, touched by the world around us, lost in our imaginations. I strive to go back to this place through art and illustration. Having had my own children's personalized gift business for 10 years, I am familiar with this happy world. Have also worked in fashion illustration, graphic design, and technical illustration. Lets create something fun!

I am a freelance illustrator and comic book artist currently working with several companies and independent commissioners. I am currently doing comic work for White Bull Studios on a soon-to-be-announced project and Petpalooza Magazine doing The Pet Avenger - a dog who saves animals from cruelty and promotes proper animal care (you can see The pet Avenger comics for free at www.petpalooza.com). I also do a great deal of work for the RPG/wargame industry, working with Catalyst Game Labs (Battletech & Shadowrun), and several superhero game companies (Vigilance Press, Xion Studios, Blackwyrm Games and many more). I primarily do character design/illustration for these companies, though I also do spot illustrations and covers as well.
