The prints are up and ready to go!

The lovely people at Endgame have extras of everything, including some without the giant mats in case you’re hoping for a smaller print experience, heh. They’re all 8″x10″ — some of them are on spiffy shiny paper, and some of them are on a bright white matte art paper. $50 each, including good karma for supporting a local artist and a local cafe. Take home a favorite or three!
Endgame Cafe
917 Washington St
Oakland, CA 94607
Come by on Friday, July 7th from 6-8pm to hang out, get a sketch, and peruse the art for the First Friday celebration.

Over a dozen prints of mine will be on display — and for sale — at the Endgame Cafe in Oakland, attached to my favorite Friendly Local Game Store, Endgame Oakland.
Come by on Friday, July 7th from 6-8pm to hang out, get a sketch, and peruse the art for the First Friday celebration.
All of my 8″x10″ prints will be $50 each and include a nifty mat and backing board — there’s even a few that haven’t yet made it up onto Etsy yet.

Dream Heroes
Posted on June 28th, 2017
Dream Heroes, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
Here are two more commissions for cute chibis to use on Slack as emoji! The patron wanted a set of superheroes, and was open to letting me design the costumes to fit the characters. This explains why Eames is looking very Super in certain areas, where Arthur is sleeker and more no-nonsense. Eames wanted some coral in his costume but it didn’t work well with the gold boots and belt, so we borrowed Arthur’s tasteful lavender instead.
These are drawn as close to a square aspect ratio as possible, so that they work as emoji on Slack. Their adorable 2-head-high chibi style conveys a lot of personality in a tiny space.

MI6 Cheerleaders

MI6 Cheerleaders, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
I sold two more commission spots for cute chibis to use on Slack as emoji, and this is the second. This patron wanted to switch up the fandoms and have Bond and Q as cheerleaders, for cheering on their fellow artists, writers, and favorite humans.

Wolf Whistle

Wolf Whistle, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
I sold two more commission spots for cute chibis to use on Slack as emoji, and this is the first! The patron wanted a blushing, embarrassed Arthur and a wolf-whistling Eames to go with him. We’ve found both very useful in everyday conversation, which probably tells you a lot about our ridiculous chats.

Formations
Posted on June 8th, 2017
Formations, 7″x5″ Primatek and metallic watercolor on Arches Cover buff paper
This newest installation of the Map series is inspired by the amazing images we’ve been seeing in the past few years of Pluto, Saturn, and Jupiter.
A wobbly blue planet has its mysterious formations outlined in a warm silver that complements the creamy buff paper that makes the space around it. Everything about this painting is muted and soft, inviting the viewer to appreciate the fine details.
What would you name these mysterious geological formations?

Above, you can see the sun glinting off the metallic formations, the silver tone as warm as the paper. Below, you can see the piece in a frame, posing for your perusal before it heads off to its new home.
