Extraterrestrial

This undocumented visitor was recently spotted in New Mexico. This sketch is based on several eyewitness descriptions. The truth is still out there!

Māori Woman

No doubt, the number one priority on my bucket list is to visit New Zealand one day. In tribute to the indigenous people of this beautiful island, here's a portrait of a Māori woman.

Rocky Mountain Big Horned Sheep

Metaphorically speaking, I was digging in Colorado, and unearthed this Rocky Mountain Big Horned Sheep. No doubt, these majestic creatures are tough enough to survive in the most rugged of conditions. They're a perfect symbol for this iconic mountain range. This is part of a series called World Tour - in which I use pages from an old atlas as canvases - painting images relating to the place on each map.

The Emperor of Antarctica

 

While drawing these Emperor Penguins, I read that temperatures in Antarctica are 70 degrees above normal (no typo). What does this portend for life on that continent?

Montana Trout

 

Whenever I think of Montana, I think of fly-fishing for trout. No doubt, this drawing was influenced by Norman Maclean's classic novel, A River runs Through It, a wonderful meditation about the great outdoors. 

Yale Alumni Magazine Cover

 

I had the pleasure of illustrating this cover of Yale Alumni Magazine. This portrait depicts Yan Phou Lee, Yale class of 1887. Originally from China, He would combat prejudice in America by becoming a fierce advocate for the rights of Chinese immigrants. Enormous thanks to art director, Jeanine Dunn, for entrusting me with this fantastic assignment. Below are some cover ideas:

 

   

Included in the interior article is this family tree I illustrated for Yan Phou Lee's descendants:  

This article opener represents Yan Phou Lee during his time at Yale University, in New Haven, CT.

Chronogram Magazine Cover

 

It was an honor to have my artwork featured on the cover of Chronogram, the premiere arts and cultural magazine of the Hudson Valley. This portrait depicts Eva Perón (also known as Evita), the iconic first lady of Argentina. I'm an avid reader this publication, as it lets me know what cool stuff is happening in this region. It was a thrill to be a contributor to its pages.

The magazine featured more of my portraits on the editors page, as well as in a write-up about my artwork (which you can read here).

Below is this drawing in full context. Signed prints of this piece are available here, in my Etsy shop!

 

Thanks for visiting!

Prince

I was searching for Paisley Park on an old map of Minnesota, and somehow ended up drawing this portrait. No doubt, if Minnesota had a Mount Rushmore for great artists, Prince would be right up there, next to Bob Dylan.
