Writing

Like my art, my fiction crosses genres and mixes influences. I play with themes of power, doom, and human connection, and am always ready to lean into something completely wild.Represented by John Baker, Bell Lomax Moreton.I hope to bring Oathbreaker, a science fantasy novel about quests' ends and capitalism, to the world soon.

Art

I make fantastical, dramatic art, full of striking silhouettes and strange characters and locations.
