Expanded studio and gallery

My long-time studio-mate moved to Colorado, so I have taken over the entire space!
I'll have better light to work by and more walls for displaying artwork.

Last but not least…

In development: a fantasy sci-fi novel that takes place on New Island

I'm pleased and excited to share this: I've been writing a novel (223 pages so far) about a 15-year-old boy named Gordy who, by means of a very strange dream, finds himself washed up on an unknown island, and also in an alternate reality. He has one thing in common with the locals - he can hear The Hum.

Gordy and a friend take a long walk on New Island’s eastern coast. From The Hum.

I hope to hear from you soon!
