Projects: I had solo with Glave Kocen Consulting in December of 2023 where I partnered with the Virginia Department of Recreation and Conservation to hightlight endangered Virginia animal and plant species (first sold out show). I had a solo this year (April 2024) with Revolution Gallery Gallery, as well as being in numerous group show with galleries like Robert Lange Studios, Arch Enemy Arts, and Modern Eden. I' m currently preparing for a solo in March of 2025 with LeMieux Gallery. I have also freelanced with Red Orange Studio for several Wasserhund beer label illustrations. In 2022 through Venture Richmond, I painted the Richmond Folk Festival poster and designed the Hardywood Folk Festbier.

Location: Richmond,VA, USA

16in x 20in. acrylic and oil on panel. Squirrel are such characters. They're natural gardeners and important to the forests ecosystem due to their forgetful nature of burying nuts and forgetting where they put them. I see them as having a bit of a puffed up ego, so I painted this squirrel to appear very confident in the style of a 16th century portrait posing with a another portrait.
