A few more photos from my time here at Dorland Center for the Arts. Looking for a residency? Don’t sleep on this one!

Full moon rising over San Jacinto mountains to the east of Dorland Arts. A hazy sky from a wildfire.

Maybe I shouldn't have sent that special story to The Sun during last winter's darkest days.

Sent on December 16. Haven't heard a peep since.

First publication of 2025 is a reprint, but still special. Honored to be included in Pinyon’s 30th anniversary issue for a story they first printed 20 years ago! Beautiful full color artwork throughout.

And a sticker!
