Illustration and design are both tools I work with daily—After spending most of my working career in the art department of a New York publisher, I am back to dedicating my time to illustration work and my own artistic endeavors. Publishing is a big part of what has shaped me, but it’s always the drawing and painting itself, that feel like home.
For more than three decades I have been illustrating for games and fantasy-publishing markets; starting in role playing games, winding through over 30 years in the collectable card game market and book covers. A deep-rooted connection to the natural landscape ensures that the surrounding environments play a major role in the story-telling I put on a page, whether it be on a grayscale interior page or a full color cover. It is that same love of nature that has always attracted me to Celtic and Scandinavian myths. Wild, ancient expanse, cold, thrashing seas and deep rock-strewn forests populate the pages of my portfolio.
