ABOUT ME

I make playful, inclusive illustrations for everything from picture books and comics to apps and websites. I am inspired by plants, animals, architecture, and of course, people. I live in Seattle with my wife and a mischievous little dog named Dziga. When I am not drawing or painting, you can find me snowshoeing, eating bread, or riding my little silver motorcycle around rural Washington state.
