Over the years, especially during the season of Advent, I love returning to the image of Mary the Mother of God. Her story, interpreted in so many different ways by really talented artists, is one of courage, hope, love and bravery. While I hope to make many more images of Read more…

This painting is called “Oracle.” I’m embarking on a totally new artistic adventure: translating my artwork into digital painting. For a long time, I’ve wanted to invest in a new tablet, and get painting again. I recently got a new Intuos Pro, and have gone absolutely wild since. It’s been Read more…
This one is called Queen. It’s obviously taken a while to get it all together. It’s a big one, and I’d say the details are worth a second click. 🙂 I promised myself that I’d complete an image in Lent. Been drawing a little bit more than usual, so I’m hoping Read more…
I know–I know. It’s been a YEAR since I last posted an image. I have a scanner! It does good work, and this little prize has been sitting around waiting to see the great big world for some time. The greek text is the first line of the Magnificat, Read more…
This image had been sitting in my 14″ sketchbook for months and months and months. I finally finished it. I used some of the metallic sharpies and played with some additional techniques that I din’t usually use. Just for fun. Enjoy! Buy a print of this image.Â
This image is another classroom doodle from the end of my coursework. I colored it after graduation, but most of it was inked in the last portion of my graduate degree. Just thinking, mostly. Just moving along. I played with the color scheme a little bit. I don’t usually use Read more…
Yes, the date on that says April. And yes, this is now August 30th, almost September. And yes, I have been really, really bad at scanning things. But, life happens. This is another classroom doodle that I came to really like. It looks sort of clock-like to me, so I Read more…
Cloaked thoughtful dreaming of other things spilling out ideas like fabric running over rocks like rivers Just thinking here, not anything particularly special. Sitting here thinking about stuff.
Finally a new image! It’s been forever… lots of work on the Academic front often meant little drawing and coloring. But I have returned, finally scanning up some images from way back in December! This one is called “Butterfly”. A simple doodle done while in class, sitting around…waiting, waiting, waiting… Read more…
It’s been a long time, I know! But I’ve finally produced some new marker art. For some reason, the colors on this scan are disappointing me. I broke some of my rules and used professional markers (Prismacolors for her skin and Shinhan for greys and some of the pinks and Read more…
This lady developed slowly after a long day thinking about the words I used to hear from folks at the Night Ministry bus. People always referred to themselves as “Blessed”–every day, just because they woke up that morning, or because they received food from us, or because they heard from Read more…
The summer is now almost, almost over. It’s September 25th, so it probably sounds to most folks like the summer has been over for a long time. But–UChicago starts late, and so September tends to be the month that we all get “off.” Which, I apologize for, is the reason Read more…
This image is the final image in my CPE Journal Series–completed for my wonderful Aunt and Uncle Trifoso! It resembles a steampunk airship…mostly because I felt like trying to draw one. I was getting a little fantastical towards the end of the summer.
In this one I had a lot of the elements of my life this summer: viaducts, spray-painted trains–tagged things and metro lines. The leaves on a summer tree, and quiet, lonely faces everywhere I looked. There’s a lot of thought in this one.
This image is from Week 8, and was purchased by the wonderful long time friends of mine, Janelle and Peter. The only criteria was “Must contain trains.” 🙂 Done.
A million years ago, I bought a great big 11×14 sketchbook. I rarely use it (I focus mostly on my 7×10, since it’s travel size), but I drew a cover page for it when I first got it. I finally took it to the scanner yesterday (along with 3 others Read more…
This one is from Week 7–I’m still behind, of course. It was purchased by my great Aunt and Uncle Reed, in the DC area. Absolutely everyone is getting involved. It’s really great. 🙂
Still behind, of course, but I’m catching up. This is Week 6–purchased by my very supportive and awesome Mom, of Minneapolis storytelling-land fame. She’s doing a show at the MN Fringe this year.Â
