Bring a little darkness into your life with this luxurious throw! š Use it as a blanket, decorate your sofa, or give your walls some love and display it. The possibilities are endless. SHOP HERE These throws are 100% cotton, woven from a mill located in North Carolina. These are NOT printed, each is a uniquely-crafted product. They measure at 52āx70ā - as an example, Iām 5ā4ā tall, and I have to stretch my arms as far as they can go to hold this thing up. Theyāre a great size, nice and big as a throw blanket, though not too large to be unwieldy. I really love these throws and I hope you do as well š¤ Preorders are now open! Iāll be closing preorders this Friday, November 30th, but until then, enjoy free shipping for US customers as an extra thank you š¤ after Nov 30th, when the throw becomes available again (probably sometime next year) the normal shipping price will return.
We all face the unknown with every passing day. It lurks behind every moment, despite your best intentions to schedule your days in carefully-prepared planners. It catches you off-guard as you count the hours left on the clock. It even plagues you as you lie awake in bed at night, dark thoughts and malicious insecurities stealing your sleep away from you minute by minute.
.
Our best defense is to hold up a light and walk into the unknown. We hold our heads high as we try to summon courage, even though on the inside, we feel exposed and vulnerable.
.
Because even the most overpowering darkness will flee from the smallest flame.

Sometimes you feel as if you are living your life just under the surface. Unable to come up for air. Unable to breathe. You yearn to feel air fill your lungs, yet you have no choice but to wait in the darkness.

Nocturne is an upcoming personal project dedicated to the night and the darker side of the human experience. The collection of images will feature never-before-seen illustrations, each one representative of nocturnal symbolism. It is an ode to the moon and the stars, to the dark and the light, to our dreams and our nightmares.
The series will feature five different themes, each comprised of multiple personal illustrations dedicated to that particular theme:
Darkness
Moon
Blood
Dream
Nightmare
Each new piece of art will be published twice a month, until the project will be released as a book in 2020. My goal in sharing my journey through this personal project is that lasting connections will form as we share experiences via the themes and symbols depicted in the artwork.

The Reaper š
āBut death was sweet, death was gentle, death was kind; death healed the bruised spirit and the broken heart, and gave them rest and forgetfulness; death was manās best friend; when man could endure life no longer, death came and set him free.ā -Mark Twain
Instead of personifying the Grim Reaper as the typical foreboding skeleton, I feel she would be an old woman, full of wisdom and grace and compassion. Sheās had this job since The Beginning. Itās not what she asked for, but someone has to do it, so sheās at least going to bring peace and assurance to those whom she visits.
And so she perseveres, wandering throughout the Earth on her tireless steed, unceasing and unwavering, so she can personally be there to comfort every dying soul.
The complete collection! Finished these eye studies a few weeks ago š¤š
