Portfolio
Originally from Montana, I happily reside in Denver, Colorado, Enthusiastic and ambitious about comics and visual storytelling, I graduated from the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design in 2007 with a BFA in Illustration. Intent on becoming a comic book penciller and inker, I place emphasis on clear storytelling, crisp pencils, and visually enticing line work. My illustration experience ranges from traditional to digital mediums with a wide variety of subject matter, science fiction and fantasy being recurring themes.

Most days I do warm-up sketches that usually turn out horrific. Sometimes they're better than others. Either way, I often post them on my Tumblr, Assorted Foliage.

Deviant Art
Like I don't already have enough outlets to post my art...

Escape From Terra

Big Head Press has been producing their webcomic Escape From Terra five days a week for the past three years. I originally began working for them when their artist, Lee Oaks hired me to ink and color the comic in May of 2010. Half a year later, they decided to test me on pencils as well. Currently Lee draws half of the strip and I draw the other half, switching off between story arcs.

These are some of my favorite sequences from the past year, following the characters as they live on the asteroid belt, travel to Mars, and gradually adventure to Venus and Mercury.

Ongoing since Spring 2010
