Here is a piece I did for our upcoming Neil Gaiman Tribute show to celebrate Know Theatre's production of Neverwhere.

This is a favorite scene of mine from Good Omens where Crowley and Aziraphale meet at St. James Park where spies from all over conspire and overfeed the ducks.

An Inktober piece called “Torn Apart”. I used to have dreams about faceless cloth dolls. I did a painting of one in college but I am not sure what happened to it. I am also excited for the new Lore TV series on Amazon.

While looking through my posts, I have left many sketch outing out unfortunately.This is from May at the Art Museum’s Samuri exhibit. A group of us went. They let us use chairs! Fascinating collection...

My mother-in-law has been talking about the eclipse for YEARS!! Their home in Eddyville, KY was in the TOTALITY zone. She had ample pairs of glasses and it was the COOLEST THING EVER!!!

I also did a couple sketches. I love the Chinese concept that an eclipse is the sun being eaten by a Celestial Dragon.

The other is a city breaking the veil into fae.

Farewell Carrie Fisher! So much talent beyond acting and Star Wars... Also a great writer and voice in the world.

We luckily had second row seats to her one woman show Wishful Drinking in Dayton several years ago. It was wonderful!

This has been my busiest year ever as an illustrator and that is saying something because I was not sure that was possible. I feel so happy and lucky to do what I love to do all the time. I have had so many great projects and books to work on this year and have some amazing stuff lined up in 2017. It has been a difficult year in so many other ways; I am grateful to find solace in my work and wonderful clients and friends.

Love seeing the art from these books! I did two pieces shown here in this post. Thanks goodness I signed them! This was done 16 years ago. I miss drawing big mechs fighting!
