Featured Projects
Within my overall body of work, I produce a variety of smaller collections, often as explorations around specific narratives and themes or unique processes and materials.
Cell Damage
I'm playing with perspective, scale, and depth and exploring what happens when I drill down further and further into the textures of some of my previous work.

The New Propaganda, vol. 1
I’ve always been fascinated by propaganda—both the historical images created by the artists of the 20s, 30s, and 40s to the more modern work of artists like Shepard Fairey. Regardless of when in history it appears, using art to further political causes and ideologies can be an incredibly powerful tool when it works. In this series, I am attempting to continue that tradition and use elements of propaganda—dramatic imagery, saturate colors, and bold typography—to explore graphic design, color, and composition while also trying to communicate larger messages and ideas.

Grid Variations, vol. 1
The 36 pieces in Grid Variations, vol.1 (12 of which are shown here) are an attempt to apply the same techniques and materials I use in my narrative pieces, such as The New Propaganda, vol. 1, to create a body of work that eschews any sense of story and is instead just an evolving exploration of texture and color bound to a grid.

Grid Variations, vol. 2
Grid Variations, vol.2 is an evolution of Grid Variations, vol. 1. The 36 pieces in the collection (12 of which are shown here) expand on the color palette and textures used in vol. 1, but still manage to remain aesthetically cohesive. Panels may be rotated, grouped, and arranged to create nearly limitless display combinations.
