graveyard mates

paintings finally finished... for Graveyard Mates, the upcoming album of Lancaster's own, The Slackwater News (check out their music!) They are good friends of mine and excellent musicians. I am so happy that they asked me to do the artwork!

front & back covers - with room left for text.

also, I am trying to start up a tumblr for my illustration, so if you use that:

don't give up on me yet...

I know it has been a while, but I have something in the works... more to come. soon

anatomy & physiology: notes

I noticed that I've acquired a few new followers- thank you! I love to know that people are visiting my humble little blog. Please come back! All the time! Lately I haven't been posting very consistently, but I have some works-in-progress that will make their way into this space sooner or later.

in the meantime:

my life for the past two months.

Tundra Dear on Etsy

It has been a while since my last post, and while I have a few projects near completion, I don't have anything ready for viewing quite yet...

Instead, I would like to introduce you to one of my favorite shops on Etsy: Tundra Dear.

Here you will find truly unique, hand made jewelry. The mastermind behind Tundra Dear create beautiful and individualist work. Elegant and rustic, botanical and metalic- please take a browse around her shop on Etsy.

tundradear.etsy.com

(These photographs are from her site- I had a difficult time selecting which ones to use because everything she makes is so beautiful!)

I actually discovered this shop when she requested that I design a banner for it. I have a pair of earrings from Tundra Dear and I wear them all the time!
