Long time no post Tumblr! Here is my original for Antler Gallery’s BRINK show, depicting one endangered species of snail, seven endangered species of turtles and tortoises and two endangered species of mushrooms.

Long time no post, Tumblr! It’s been a crazy few months full of traveling. Here’s a few sketches from my latest trip - a week long residency in Mt. Hood National Forest with Signal Fire!

Previews from my piece at Light Grey Art Lab’s GUTS show, opening tonight, April 17th from 7 - 10pm in Minneapolis!

Inspired by vintage botanical illustrations, I just finished up this drawing of the life cycle of a peach. Graphite with digital color.

Sneak peek #9! Get excited for the collaboratively drawn book that christinamakes and I will be launching via Kickstarter soon!

Hey zoologicalpt - you were wondering how we get our blacks to look so dark and prevent smudging! We use 6B pencils for all of our darkest areas. We use a small piece of paper under our hand while we're drawing to cut down on smudging, and change out that piece of paper often so that it's always clean. We do plenty of touch-up with a gum eraser at the end of the drawing process to restore whites to their brightest. Sometimes, we will fill in all of the darkest areas first, spray the page with workable fixative, and then develop the rest of the lighter values. Hope this helps!
