S.O.S.

S.O.S. is an independent single-issue comic project I had the fortune of illustrating, written by Joel Depri. Copies are now available in select stores.


Wenches. Wooden Legs. Windows 7? When metropolitan blogger Lewis Hollinger stepped aboard the Euphrosine he couldn’t have imagined the struggling fishing boat would live up to fairytale fantasies. Like her namesake, the Euphrosine delivers allure paired with heady mystery. The oceans may be dying, but magic and adventure are not.












Italy Sketches 2011

I had the rare opportunity of planning and executing a trip to Italy with my boyfriend, Erik, during the summer of 2011.  It was a life-changing experience which will remain with me for the remainder of my life.  I took the opportunity to sketch from life, focusing more on architecture than I had during my previous trip in 2008. I feel very fortunate to have experienced all that I did.
