Jessamyn spent a few weeks with me recently and we made these images. It was so much fun. She’s such an artist in her own right, so creating with her was especially fun since she wasn’t afraid to interject her ideas into the process. It’s always wonderful to have a complete collaboration.

After my last print sale I thought I’d write a little on how you can buy one of my prints. I don’t usually advertise that my prints are up for grabs… but they are. I get emails sometimes asking me if this print is for sale or that print is for sale. If you see […]
I have so many stories to tell. I feel like life moves so fast and sometimes we forget to stop and put things into perspective. I always revert to 1993 for some reason. I was such a punk. Taking off with my best friend across the country with no real rhyme or reason to it. […]
