Within the Woods

Within the Woods

I recently finished my Motivarti apprenticeship with Leighton Hickman and this is one of the images that I worked on under his guidance. I learned a lot about his painting process and what makes a good image even better, so I'm really thankful to have had this opportunity!

This piece was inspired by the Russian folktales of Baba Yaga and her house in the woods that suspends itself on chicken legs. It provided a great springboard for some interesting imagery.

I'll be able to share the Steal Away Home sequel cover soon, so expect that in the coming weeks.

NYC livin'

Just checking in to report that I'm currently in NYC interning for Richard Solomon Artist Representatives. It's been a whirlwind of stuff happening the past couple of weeks and art making is minimal. I've been sketching and hopefully can have some new pieces up soon as I've finally settled down in my apartment.

Totally scared of the life I'm beginning but it's extremely exciting just the same!

Artist's Books

Wow, so it has been far too long. I've been focusing on thesis and my portfolio so much that I've been neglecting everything else. This is the homestretch though so in a week and a half, I'll be posting the fruits of my labors :)

In the meantime, here are two of my large projects from Artist's Books last semester!
