Ghibli Puzzle Lantern
For my sister-in-law’s 2023 Christmas gift, I created this lantern with Ghibli Crystal Puzzle panels. I’d discovered these really cool Ghibli Crystal Puzzles on Amazon and bought several of them. I knew I was going to ultimately give them to my sister-in-law (who loves anything Ghibli!), but I wanted to do something with them. Four […]
House of Bricks Miniature
The House of Bricks Miniature was inspired (in part) by my dad. For my senior art exhibit in college, I had made a life-sized version of this same piece (see picture below). After my show, my dad was gracious enough to store the pig house in his garage for me, and ended up sitting there […]
Miscellaneous Illustrations
Some illustrations and a few finished pieces through the years. There are so many more not posted here. I’ll update this page on occasion. All Older Sketches Newest Sketches Dead Girl with Mouse
Zombie Bunnies
Zombie Bunnies started out as a simple and fun assignment to do with my niece for Easter. As I do with many off-the-cuff sketches, I went further and in another direction than I’d planned. I liked the sketch enough so I decided to fully color it. The Details Media 50% Pencil 50% Digital Software Sketchbook […]
The Illustrated Alphabet
The Illustrated Alphabet was a multi-year project I worked on while I was in college. My advisor, who was also the drawing instructor, asked me if I’d like to do an alphabet with creatures bending in the shape of letters. I didn’t like that idea since I’d already seen several other artist do that, mostly […]
“Rooted”
During a family reunion in Baton Rouge in 2008, my nephew Josh had a birthday. I drew this piece for him in a couple of hours — just something random as usual. I actually like this illustration.

Courtney in the Park
This piece started out as a simple brush test in the drawing app Sketchbook Pro. I ultimately found a brush I really liked and drew the first version of the tree in this illustration. As I added more to it, I began to really like it. After deciding to finish the drawing, I added my niece […]
The Janet Cards
Illustration in digital media, 2020/2021 “The Janet Cards” started as a simple request for an illustration for (maybe) a tattoo. Janet requested an illustration that incorporated mementos of her loved ones (husband David, son Zach, brother Kendrick, and sister Terry) who have unfortunately passed away. I struggled with coming up with a single image that […]
Graytime
Inspired by the son of a woman I was dating in 2012, Graytime was more of a “get back in the saddle” project for me. I hadn’t done any serious drawing, especially in digital format for years before this. Though I’m never completely happy with any of my works, this one being no exception, I […]
The Head Mechanic
This began as a random drawing in a random sketchbook. My brother saw it and asked if he could use it for a tattoo so I finished the drawing and colored it digitally. The Details Media Pencil, colored digitally Software Sketchbook Pro Photoshop CC Media Size 8″ x 10″ 12″ x 13″ (trio) Frame Size […]
