Halcyonic HarmonyPeaceful, gentle, and calm. A sense of self I long to get back to, life just has a way of burdening you with dense feelings, worry, and stress. Psychedelics can play a part in shaking that up, but sometimes it’s just not enough. I created this piece in trying to find the calm in the world that we currently live in… endure in.
Amerindian AtrocityOriginally I set forth to create a piece of art that danced between themes of Native Americans and the late Polish painter Zdzislaw Beksinski. I underwent this creative endeavor during the 2020 Covid lockdowns and spent a great deal in isolation while slowly working away. The grand vision morphed over time and eventually settled into a place of uniqueness that I feel symbolizes my style. I wanted to capture a sense of disdain, dread, and darkness to the piece while adding in some dichotomy to the color scheme. There are hints of homage to the late artist Beksinski, however I feel like it’s not in your face or obvious. I created this over the course of 5 months using graphite, ink, and colored pencils. This piece is a testament to my diligence, patience, and determination as I struggled to finish it. I anticipate my future self to revisit this theme again as I am tantalized by the dark surreal themes of Beksinski. Amerindian Atrocity202010x8 - Graphite - Ink - Colored PencilsPrints for Sale
Wistful Wane2020-2021. 9x11 Graphite, Ink, Colored PencilCreated this piece as a commission for my personal accountant. She recently lost her mother, which I can sympathize and resonate with how traumatic that sort of event can be. She asked me to create a piece that could crystalize her with pure love. This piece took me around 8 months off an on ( I work full time as a carpenter and grow cannabis). I’m not going to lie, it’s hard to maintain it all, but I do my best. I added some flowers that represent passing, love, and transcendence for symbolism.

369Another piece that flirts with the concept of transhumanism and the coming digital/technological revolution. Simply a beautiful cyborg, what else could she possibly be hiding? The title comes as a homage to Nikola Tesla and his obsession with the numbers 3, 6, and 92019 11x14 & 5x8 Graphite Prints for Sale
Project EquipoiseThis is an unfinished piece, but stands all right on it’s own for now. It’s a complex take on duality and balance. Dichotomy based upon: LEFT - Animal kingdom, organic life, natural processes, warm tones RIGHT - synthetics, genome manipulation, cybernetics, technology and digital, artificial creations, cool tonesDown the middle is a balance structure with the zodiac. The hidden esoteric above and the manipulation of the many below. I will revisit this piece in the future as I think it could be something cool.Project Equipoise2015 DigitalPrints for sale
MetempsychosisThis piece was inspired by dabbling with themes of feminism, death , rebirth, reincarnation and where the soul goes before, during, and after it’s transition from the physical plane to the ethereal. Scattered throughout the piece are little details of hidden symbolism that pulls the piece together to create a theme. I was particularly proud of this one as I truly love to create densely detailed pieces and I took my time polishing and rendering this one. 2019 11x14 5x8 - Graphite - Black and WhitePrints for Sale
Pellucid PulseI have always been engrossed with fantasy genre’s and as a child would daydream and fantasize about living in a world with mystical creatures such as dragons. I received a commission concept from a customer during my day job (Carpenter) and decided to go with it. I attempted to create a Crystal Dragon that is powered during rare moments of a blood moon or eclipsed moon. Normally I don’t try and include so much color but I enjoyed the dichotomy of color background with the monochrome dragon in the foreground.Pellucid Pulse2019 11x14 & 5x8 Graphite - Colored Pencil - InkPrints for Sale
Atrophic ApothecaryThis piece was inspired as a potential character or denizen within the theme of a book I am actively/passively writing. I’ll leave an excerpt here that I posted on my instagram when I published this piece. Around here, benevolence trickles elsewhere, certainly not a trait one seeks when venturing this far into the Putrid Depths. For no rays of organic light shine within the confines of this plane. In its absence, comes the foul trickery that dances in silhouettes of shadow. No fool with an astute awareness would dare treck these trails alone or unprepared for what lies before. Sadly not all are keen enough to realize where they have stumbled. Like an alluring web...by design. Most souls are etherically lost in these parts, plump with energy for the parasitic entities that prey on their weaknesses. They have been beguiled and bewitched into a hopeless stupor of inaction, sapped of their life essence the longer they drift in the darkness. So they wander aimlessly in ignorant desperation to the unbeknown fact that they may never leave. ..most know not why they even came. . The Atrophic Apothecary seeks to remedy these poor souls in the guise of healing and mending their lost memories with concoctions brewed with devious means. Sweet and sincere they appear, she slowly conditions them into a frail and apathetic state, all the while sucking their very life force for her own selfish endeavors. She smirks and grins greedily at the prospect of yet another fool who dares trust her intentions...for sustenance awaits.Atrophic Apothecary 2019 11x14 & 5x8 Graphite - InkPrints for Sale
Cybernetic GravidityAs an artist that grew up during the 90’s wave of mass adoption of technology and the internet. I’ve personally seen first hand the drastic differences of life before, during, and after. Society and culture as we know it is advancing at such an astronomical and exponential rate that I find it intriguing to guess what’s to come. I’ve always gravitated towards coining myself as a technerd or even a cyberpunk enthusiast that is enthralled by sci-fy. So I set forth to create a piece that is centered around the theme of future tech. A cyborg symbiote in suspended animation, within the confines of a vat-tube in some artificial intelligence laboratory. Cybernetic Gravidity202010x8 - Graphite - Ink - Colored PencilsPrints for sale

Leo's LoveI was on a spree of creation that involved darker themes and sometimes just black and white.
