Art is a form of storytelling:
building worlds through characters, creatures, environments, & emotions.

Creature design using the Infinite Painter app on iPad

Welcome to my website!

I'm a Vancouver Island-based artist and illustrator, specializing in creature design, monster design, and fantasy art. From the delightful to the disturbing, I explore the psychological and emotional side of creature/monster design. I strive to give my little beings a sense of individuality, emotionality, and agency. Each creature that scuttles onto the page has a story to tell…

Whether you've found my page via an online search, snagged a card at a convention or show, or followed my social media accounts to get here, I hope you enjoy looking through my content here. I've included galleries of my creatures and concepts, an online shop where you can purchase original pieces, prints, books, and other goodies, blog entries and news about upcoming events, and a whole section devoted to my beloved original character Oliver the Squonk.

Hope to see you here again - enjoy the journey!
