Just got my copy of the American Illustration 44 annual in the mail…And DAMN, it’s AWESOME! I’m honored to have work from my comic, Hellscape Americana included in this year’s book. Huge thanks to the judges for the recognition, and to be featured alongside so many incredible illustrators is something I don’t take lightly. Always surreal seeing your work in such good company. Grateful to be part of it! @american_illustration_winners #illustration #ai44 #americanillustration #americanillustration44

Double good mail day! Just received my certificate from the Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles’ @societyofillustratorsla Illustration West 64 competition. Huge thanks to show chair Scott Bakal @scottbakal and the judges panel for the recognition. It’s an honor to have my beer poster work with Bayheads included! Really proud of this one and stoked to be in such amazing company.

Excited to share that I’ve got work featured in the 3x3 Annual No. 22 in the Comics/Sequential category. The piece comes from my latest comic, Hellscape Americana—a project that’s been a wild ride from concept to print. Always an honor to be included alongside so many great artists and storytellers. #3x3Annual #Comics #SequentialArt #HellscapeAmericana #Illustration

Some work in progress on the next bit of Hellscape Americana! Tried out some new tools on this one, including the Molotow Blackliner Fineliner pens and the Molotow Brush Pen for the first time. Really digging the way the brush handled those heavier shadows and chunky line weights. Need supplies?

Awesome Star Wars show over at @poppycocktattoo tonight! Amazing work from some of my favorite artists around, lots of yapping/story time, and a scarily accurate tarot reading. Always a blast!

Some of the pieces that helped me earn a nomination for this year’s @nationalcartoonists Divisional Reuben Award in Advertising/Product Illustration. I’m super lucky to be able to make weird stuff for cool people! Big thanks to @bayheadsbrewing @wilmingtonbrewworks @wine_spirit_co_of_greenville @studio.fallout for trusting me to draw fun things!

If you missed it, the show is up all month, so go check it out.
