We soft launched an Etsy store last month, but I suppose now that I am telling you fine folks about it, this is the hard launch. There is still more to come, but you can find my books, MTG artist proofs, gaming/deskmats and prints of my charcoal pop culture work. www.etsy.com/shop/charcoa...

I’m so excited to finally share that I had the opportunity to collaborate with @litjoycrate on their special annotated edition of "Outlander" by Diana Gabaldon! This piece was painted in oils on a 20x30 inch wooden panel. ⁠ #litjoy #outlander #outlanderart #ClaireandJamie

A recent-ish drawing of Darth Maul I am rather proud of. Tried to get more energy into an image than I normally would.
