Perelandra Cross Section


This has been inordinately frustrating for me. I'm not entirely happy with it nor do I hate it. There are parts that I really like and there are parts that I hope you really don't notice. I've spent a shameful amount of time on this and I hope I'm done; we'll see what my AD says.

Stag Beetle


It's getting hot out and time to go hunting for bugs. I like to augment my collection whenever possible. I have a longhorn beetle at home in the freezer waiting to be pinned and dried. I found him on the clothesline at our campsite at Pine Grove Furnace. I'll have to do a drawing and get it online. I did this drawing of a stag beetle some time ago; it will have to do until I can get the longhorn beetle on paper.

Camping Watercolor


Pine Grove Furnace State Park is a jewel. It is quiet, secluded and, incidentally, the traditional half way point on the Appalachian Trail. This is a little watercolor I did while sitting outside my tent waiting for the baby to get up from his nap.

Frog Creature


Another Perelandra illustration. This time it's one of the ubiquitous frog-like creatures that are so tangentially important to the story. Photoshop.
