I was commissioned by an old friend to make a panel for his daughter’s upcoming wedding. He wanted a “wedding portrait” in my minimalist style of the couple and their cats.

New Webstore!
I’ve got a new webstore! In an effort to transition away from Etsy, whose shenanigans have been out of control lately, I made the decision to start my own store. It’s more work, but I think it’s worth the effort. Especially since Etsy refused to take any part in defending fanart (like they claim they […]

Laser-cut Patterns
Looking at my last three projects you probably wouldn’t guess that I tried out a new method for cutting and piecing my panels.

X-Files pieces
I had a couple of X-Files things to do over the summer. The first was a commission of my IWTB poster panel: The customer asked for a much bigger size than I usually make it – 11×14″ as opposed to 8×10″. It’s still a fun piece to make. The second was my XF candleholder, which […]
