So recently I have gone back to my roots of pen and ink. I'm not really sure why I left it in the first place, I suppose it was just natural exploration.  But going back to it, I've realized it is home.  I've become obsessed with black and white illustrations, and I plan to start a new series of illustrated fairy tales.  The Juniper Tree is the first in the series, taken from the Grimms tale.

In a lot of my art, especially the older peices, I don't plan it or pre-sketch it. The point of my art is the process, the puzzle of connecting all of the elements I've started out with into one unified piece. I like getting lost in ridiculous details, and hiding things inside them. Lately, I've been seriously focused on illustrations, so now I at least come up with a vague idea sketch of how I want it to look. My favorite artists are from the Art Nouveau period, and I take a lot of elements from the style, though I do not consider my style Art Nouveau. I am inspired by the story and fairy tale illustrations from books that I read as a child, and though my work is very different from these, I hope to pay homage in my own method.
