The salt water air weathers your metal shell. You wish you were breathing it in rather than a stale, filtered version of it. Wish you could see the sky in all its brilliant nuance rather than through pared down eyes made for killing.

This is your occasional reminder that Rose O'Neill, creator of the Kewpies, first published female cartoonist in the United States, and among the first cartoonists to build a merchandising empire on their work, turned out some absolutely baller, romantic-feeling size-difference monster art.

A Rose O'Neill pen and ink drawing, featuring a giant humanoid embracing a smaller one. It is captioned "Man and the Earth."

A book cover I did over the last couple months!
Enjoyed myself drawing too much and it ended up taking forever, but I like how it turned out!!

Check it out!

A full spread image including the front, spine, and back cover of The Sorceress and the Vigilant, a fantasy book. The cover includes a woman in billowing skirts reaching up towards an ominous castle, which is reaching back to her with ghostly hands. The back cover includes a red headed man in the lower right, looking down at his sword; a dark medieval town far in the background.

Here's Pinnacle Emissary, my piece for Edge of Eternities! I don't work too often on Sci-fi stuff, so getting to illustrate a cool looking robot with some cute little drones was a blast. I'm really glad that I got to work on such a fun and unique set :)
