"The Great Hunt"
I painted this as part of @paulscottcanavan.com "Mastering Imaginative Realism" mentorship.
The brief was to design and illustrate a hunter and their animal companion embarking on The Great Hunt. I had a lot of fun designing this creature and painting a stern orc lady 👀💦

"Reminder"
A gift for my friend. Ajani Goldmane is their favorite Magic: The Gathering character. I wanted to use Ajani's ability as a healer to create an illustration that would be healing to look at. Ajani's been through so much heartbreak in his life but today's a nice day :)

The absolute panic I felt when they announced that there were only five copies left and I saw the huge crowd at the register. Shoutout to the employee who handed me a copy as they made their way up to the counter 🙏

MCRmy stays winning (it was hell)
Metro gets you to the big events of the summer, including a jam-packed week of concerts at Nationals Park, where we moved more than 62,000 trips for three major shows!

"At the Gates of Moria"
I did this as part of Cynthia Sheppard's "Illustrating the Emotional Narrative" mentorship.
This is the moment in Lord of the Rings where Sam is forced to leave Bill the Pony behind. It's always deeply affected me but I find this scene is rarely remembered.

The Emotion Thesaurus is intended to help writers express characters' emotions in more sophisticated ways, but because many of these cues are visual, it's been extremely helpful for me as an illustrator for storytelling and brainstorming.
Here's the spread for "disbelief" as an example.

"Treasure Island"
I did this as part of Cynthia Sheppard's "Illustrating the Emotional Narrative" mentorship through SmartSchool.
I've always been most fascinated by the ultimately doomed friendship between Jim Hawkins and Long John Silver. This piece takes place before Silver's plan is revealed.

"Somebirdy to Love"
My goal for this piece was to design Harpies that looked like they could either have human or animal-level intelligence. And to draw monster girls having a cute moment :)
