My schedule is open for comics!! Hire me!

I especially love telling stories in horror, fantasy, or anything with critters. Previously worked with Dark Horse, IDW, 2000 AD, and Oni Press

Available for interiors and covers ✨

Digitally inked and colored comic page showing a woman nervously leaving her apartment and heading to the subway at night

Ink and watercolor comic page featuring a barn filled with many supernatural creatures and two female humans telling them to behave before walking off

Digitally inked and colored comic page composed of 5 horizontal stacked panels. A man examining a rock face, hands playing tic tac toe, a family kitchen scene, a man at a computer terminal, and a hand reaching for a lizard scurrying across the same rock face from panel 1

“The Sixth Gun: Battle for the Sixth #2” Cover: vultures flying over an armored man with a long shadow made of flames

Things aren't looking super great right now, so if you have any art you need done, I'm very available. I've worked with Ahoy, IDW, Legendary, Oni, Image, and plenty of amazing indie writers. My portfolio is down below.

All the #Hellboy X #Cairo fan art I did over the past few weeks in one post (I tweaked the first one a bit because once I’ve drawn him a couple of times I settled into drawing him in a certain way)

Such a fun character to draw! And a testament of @mikemignola.bsky.social’s brilliant design!

Hellboy fan art. Hellboy in an ancient Egyptian tomb surrounded by police cops

Hellboy fan art. Hellboy standing, smiling

Hellboy fan art. Hellboy meets President Sadat.

Hellboy fan art. Hellboy at the Pyramids of Giza, riding a camel

Thank you! I was hoping to get a price range too for nowadays. I don’t do that personally so I have little experience, was hoping someone was involved in something recently would nudge me in the right direction

10 hours left! We didn’t make it yesterday and we won’t today…but I’ll still be here.

Every day, food, shelter, and more for six families and a camp.

Regardless of what the news says, they need us more than ever to support their survival. Right now, that’s food, tents, warm items, medicine. 98/500
