Traditional Art

  • Agnostic

    Oil on Canvas (16x20)
    2024

    The blue veil is often used to symbolize the Virgin Mary while red is often used for Mary Magdalene. The addition of make up, both bright red lipstick and blue eyeshadow, allude to the latter as well. Rather than eyes cast upwards or the head bowed in prayer, the figure looks out to the viewer. Her hands are not clasp in prayer, but posed in between.

  • American Jesus

    Oil on Canvas (24×36)
    2024

    This painting references Christ Crowned with Thorns by Dirck van Baburen. It is a commentary on the treatment of people of color in the United States. The American flag replaces the red robes and a thin blue line replaces the crown of thrones. Instead of holding a cane, he holds a few bills. Unlike the inspiration, the figure is alone. The background lightens near his head, creating a halo.

Fortune’s Fancy Webcomic

With patchy robes and concealing spells, no one would guess a small town's hermit, Drexel, to be the most powerful wizard who destroyed a large part of Resultum 23 years ago. Instead, he's more of a boogie man in Northwick. So he is surprised to meet Mira, a young woman who stubbornly wants to be his apprentice. He is more surprised to met Archimedes, a fortune teller with an easy, charming smile and a gift for seeing people. Will Drexel find healing and hope?
