I am a painter and illustrator and a current student at Frostburg State University. Painting portraits and sketching comics, my work allows me to constantly brainstorm new projects and ideas. I use a wide variety of different techniques and mediums across my pieces in order to create an ever-evolving sense of style. Constructing a comical aspect with well-rounded characters and wacky cartoonish self-portraits, I welcome viewers to see the humor behind most of my illustrative pieces.
