“Decay” This is a piece i did while i was still in art school. It’s been one of my more popular pieces around the interwebs over the years.

“A Sense of Direction” A bit of a brighter piece this time around. I’ve been meaning to finish a full landscape piece for awhile since doing more outdoor painting and taking some scenic trips in the past couple of months or so. I feel like i’ve got a ways to go as far as constructing full scenes like this but enjoyed the process regardless. I’m eager to do more traveling and scenic painting in the near future. If anyone’s interested in purchasing art prints of this they are available through the link in my bio. Hope you like this one!

Flipping through the mixed-media pad. All of the scenic stuff and the girl in the chair are done from life.

This is a recently completed album cover commission for a Michigan-based musician and audio engineer for an upcoming release. You can check out some of his music here https://tbaudiomi.wordpress.com/

This was a fun change of pace to try out some more photo-based techniques. I am currently working on a digital painting that I’m pretty excited about for a metal band’s album cover (among other things)

“Immersion” This was a very experimental piece for me in terms of techniques, subject matter, and intent. This was created with the idea that i would record some music to it and work both the image and music into an animation. The video in this post is cut short but you can see the full animation on youtube (link in bio) or a weirdly cropped version on my IG tv channel. All of the instruments were played by me. Iphone garageband quality for now😬
