Top PatronsSee all 5
I am an illustrator, designer, singer, songwriter, storyteller, performer, and puppeteer. I create comic book illustrations and designs, I write stories, and I write and record my own music. I would love to develop my own comics, short stories, children's books, and products, and would eventually like to explore creative projects in puppetry, radio drama, and podcasting.
This page was created to generate the income to keep my equipment current, to pay for prints of my work, to host tables at conventions, and to free me up to cut my regular work hours and focus on larger personal projects.
My Patreon page is set up so that donations are received on a per-piece basis. On average, I complete one new piece of art per month. If by some miracle I suddenly start producing more work than that, I plan to switch my donation structure to a monthly payments.
At present, the kind of work you see below is the type of work you'll be supporting. My day job keeps me pretty busy and hinders me from tackling anything too gargantuan. Of course, I'd like to see that change! The themes that are most common in my work are childlike innocence, wonder, nostalgia, romance, playfulness, and sensuality.
Thanks for your consideration!

Music Example: Finding Me

I wrote the Finding Me in response to personal growth I am experiencing in response to a really difficult season of life. I'm so grateful life affords us opportunities to grow and change!

Music Example: Letter From Clark
Written as a character profile on Clark Kent. What would he write home to Ma and Pa in his first letter from the big city? There's quite a bit of me in this song.
