Welcome!
I am an artist and illustrator in Portland, Oregon. I love to use my art as a means for telling stories about the world and our complex role within it. I hope that my work brings you some of the joy I found in creating it!
featured project
I recently revisited one of my favorite pieces from five years ago and reworked it to include a sea turtle. Learn more about the artwork’s evolution here.
I try to balance out the typically solitary nature of my art practice by actively engaging in the wider art community, both locally and online. Some of the ways I most frequently keep myself out of trouble:
As part of the small but mighty team behind Print Day in May, I maintain our website and help plan this annual, global celebration of all things printmaking!
Creative Arts Community has been hosting “art camp for grown-ups” every summer since 1966! As a board member, I pitch in where I can, especially on projects needing some techie nerdery.
Check out more of my community engagement projects, including school art residencies, a collaborative mural project, and a beer label for a performing arts center here.
