What’s been going on





1. Lampshades
This is my current favorite medium to draw on!!! As an anti big-light person, lamps are ever important to me. I create custom imagery based on a theme or a person.





2. Tattoo
 Ah the pen becomes a needle and the drawings become etched into skin. I’ve been tattooing my friends (and self). It’s been a joy getting to put chairs on people I adore. Honing in on my stick and poke craft.

Want a tattoo? Please reach out!




3. Printmaking
Currently working in a printshop. Though I am doing a lot of computer work, I have access to a letterpress and am working in a high-production albeit slow-making environment. 



4. Marionette Dolls
Well, wouldn’t you look at these little guys! Tiny little clowns, sailors, cowboys ;), and more!



5. PhotographyClick clack. I’ve got a Fujifilm-xt3 and some various 35 mm film cameras. 



6. Handbound Books
My appreciation of found objects and old things extends into rebinding and repurposing books. From journals to layouts of articles, this tactile object always hold my gaze.




7. Animation
 I love to make things wiggle and move! Look at them go!!!! Highly interested in helping bring stories to life.   


8. Friendship
 The good majority of my creations are fueled by my friendships. I am constantly inspired by those I surround myself with. And often I am creating to give little things to them. I enjoy forcing them to dress up for themed parties and share many meals together. Thank you.


9. Chiba
 Here’s the man himself.



Thank you for being here.
