I bring obstinate concepts to their knees. I use my training in traditional media and my facility with digital tools to corral them. Then I use my extensive knowledge of history, biology, geology, archaeology, anthropology and astronomy to wrestle them to the mat.

Graphite, charcoal, conte, marker, watercolor, gouache, pastel and oil are all part of my arsenal. I’ve been using Painter and Photoshop professionally since 1996.

I have fifteen years of experience in game and story development, both as a freelancer and as a full-time employee. I’ve worked on all aspects of the production cycle on a variety of commercial products including kid’s multimedia, strategy games, comics, fiction writing and film.
