I had a request for a custom Yermit: “Could you make a Yermit with a grey beard who used to be in the army and is now just grumpy and sits around pondering stuff. I believe he would be most comfortable in pajamas and perhaps a house coat with his old medals on it. He … Read More

The Witch is Dead
Here are some new illustrations I’m working on. I wanted to work on some double page spreads, put more thought into the designs, and this seemed like the a good opportunity.

Some I didn’t put on
Here are a couple of illustrations that I didn’t add into my online portfolio. I figured I only need so many of the Red Brick Cafe’s in there, but I’m hard pressed to pick favourites so here are a few more. See more illustrations on my portfolio pages.
