CapNom DoT cover News.jpg

Department of Truth Cover

September 16th 2024

I've teamed up with CapNom Comics to put out my very first retailer exclusive variant cover, Image's 'Department of Truth' #26! I have to be honest, I wasn't familiar with DoT before this, but having now read the first couple of issues i'm completely hooked in. It's a very well told story that's timely and resonates with the current events of our modern age, and I hope my contribution encapsulates that feeling. It's a nice step up on the ladder of this business to say I have my very own first variant cover, and it's only the first of many!

Astro Boy Licensed Print

April 11th 2024

I'm happy to announce a nice little step up in the career, my first officially licensed print! Over the past year i've been working with a great company; The Amazing Art Expo, whose been touring around the country selling some of my work. Through them I have gotten the chance to create a licensed Astro Boy piece, as part of their promotional push for the new anime series "Pluto" on Netflix. It's a been a great experience learning about a character and series that is one of the original godfathers of anime, and I hope this piece shows my admiration for that genre.

Majora's Mask 2.jpg

The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask

March 2nd 2023

My all time favorite game in my favorite series; Majora's Mask! I just completed the latest piece in my ongoing quest to do a massive 12" x 36" painting for each Zelda console title, and I think it's my best work to date. It took a while to get the composition down, because as a super fan of this game I knew I had to fit in every detail of Termina and it's residents, which left such a deep impression on me as a young kid playing the game for the first time. But after about 2-3 long months of work, I think I did the game justice. With this piece finished, I'll be taking a break from Zelda for a moment, to get around to some other franchises I have yet to touch. But don't worry, there's always more great art on the way!

JoBlo.com Interview

August 7th 2022

It's an honor to announce that this month i'll be featured on my absolute favorite movie news website, under their 'Awesome Artists From Around The Net" article. As a long time reader of their site, and in particular this ongoing series, it feels very surreal to actually be on it for the first time. JoBlo has been my primary source for all my movie news for years, because it's an amazing aggregate of all my interests in the movie and TV world.

Skyward Sword Wind Waker.jpg

The Legend of Zelda

October 10th, 2021

A celebration of all things Zelda! Just finished two of my largest and most intricate paintings yet; Skyward Sword and Wind Waker. Both at 12" x 36" whether it's the long vertical, or panoramic horizontal, they give me just enough space to capture the entire game all in one image, and this is only the beginning. I've decided that these are the first two in a series that will cover every main title in the Legend of Zelda series. Next up is my absolute favorite game of all time, Majora's Mask! These are big passion projects that I can only work on in and around paid work, so it'll take a while to create each one, but make sure to check out my Instagram for all of the latest updates. And don't forget to grab your prints on my Etsy shop or store!

Super Smash Bros. Melee

My Greatest Painting (so far)

February 3rd, 2021

It's finally ready. A fun, personal, side project that's around two years in the making is at long last, ready to show. I had the idea for this piece, a Rococo style conglomeration of all the characters from Super Smash Bros. Melee, a few years ago, and would work on it very slowly around and in between paid work. The idea was that it's the entire game, all in one image. You can stare at it for an hour and still find new little characters, items, easter eggs, and details. It's my biggest project to date, and I couldn't be more proud of it. Click on the image to the left to see how it was made, and also grab a print in my store.

Next up in this style, I have in mind something for Avatar, The Last Airbender. But, as the size and amount of detail would suggest, it'll take a little while.
