a white and grey tabby cat looking lovingly up at you

This is a portrait of my cat Toby. He and his sister were the first two pets that my wife and I had as adults, and they were both extremely important to us. Toby was the most loving boy ever, and I miss him dearly.

A fun little coloring page, please feel free to color this! If you do, I’d love to see it.

This painting was an experiment with underpainting in watercolor, which while it is a thing I absolutely adore, I usually forget about until I’m well into the painting itself. It’s such a fun technique, and it ends up unifying the painting, and giving you a strong value structure to work on from the outset.

Two cats look off into the distance as their tail tips touch. They are in front of a heart in Pan Pride colors

This was painted as a surprize gift for a friend. The cats are named Theo and Zora, and the photograph of them that this was from was irresistibly cute. I did several other pride flag pets, but this one was always my favorite.

The moon. It is full, and bright, and a bat is flying in the night sky

Creating this one was a lot of fun. I wanted the moon itself to be both surreal and accurate, so I had pulled up a bunch of NASA photos as a reference to get the craters and bright spots on the moon accurate. I love how it turned out.

an herbalist's mortar and pestle. There are berries, a rose, mysterious potions, and a bird skull in view

Berries, plants, and unidentified potions. What more could you really want?

The poodle is named Billie, and she is a very good girl.

Some fun with perspective, and with design
