  • Childhood Treehouse

    VR painting from memory of my childhood tree house :)

  • Floor Lamp Thunderstorm

    Fun little raspberry-pi project:

    I wrote a program to take color strip animations I made in After Effects and play them out on a neopixel light strip, driven by an Adafruit, FadeCandy. … if that made sense to anyone, I salute you.

  • Lions Club Poker Run

    While visiting my Aunt over Thanksgiving, she kindly asked if I could design a graphic for a charity fund raiser she was involved with. Being my favorite aunt (determined by proximity at the time, I love all you others too ;) I said of course!

    This is how it came out:

    Original Sketch

    They both came out better than I could imagine. The designers at the T-shirt shop did a FANTASTIC job of adapting the design to show up well on the shirts.

  • Sailing at Sunset

    Here’s a painting I did quite a while back. Hadn’t posted it because I hoped to get back to it and re-work it a bit. There’s a lot I could improve, but I like it enough to say good enough :)
