I've been a professional visual designer and illustrator for decades. Much of my creative work has been for business projects. However, during the pandemic I started to develop a story based on one question. "Is it possible to get to the bottom of what's broken about existence?" Broken, Bound, BRAVE is a fun journey to explore that question. It's become my passion project.

Hey readers and creators! July 5th launches my 5 episode mini-series = Spretus! Check it out! It's a summer special with weekly episodes. I think it's my best work so far!
Readers and fellow creatives! I've had some delays in creating episodes but I'm still hard at work. In June, I plan to release the Spretus mini-series in Tapas. You'll want to check that out! It's a rollercoaster deep dive into the twisted chaos in the Gaia universe.
The latest episode of Broken, Bound, BRAVE is up!!! The team is together still... maybe on the same page, maybe not. I'm excited about this episode, it kicks off the next set of episodes taking the crew out into the wild world.
Spretus is live as my entry into the Webtoons contest. It's in the Gripping and Thrilling category. Please check it out! I plan to bring the series here. Frankly, I'm trying to see how it does before deciding to make it a short mini-series or not. Spretus is part of the Broken, Bound, BRAVE world.
I want so share a bit of news. I did a bit of reflection in December and felt that I let my art style become something that's less of how I as an artist work. I tend to love color and expressive lines and painting strokes. This image is an example of the art style change. After the next episode, you'll see the artwork transform. Hope you enjoy it as much as I now feel it is truly an expression of me as an artist. You can read more on my free Patreon [ https://www.patreon.com/posts/fresh-direction-120528015 ]
