1 FISHING THE SUN
“This personal work represents the constant struggle of seeking knowledge and evolution. This ‘cross-hatching’ style brings a kind of warmth I enjoy.”
2 FIRE IN THE SKY
“This clash between two armies was the cover for MCDM’S Kingdoms & Warfare. It was one of the most challenging pieces I’ve ever done.”
3 A HUNTER AND HER PREY
“This was the cover for the first issue of MCDM’S magazine Arcadia. It portrays a beautiful world and its dichotomy with danger and death.”
4 THE ABSENCE OF TIME
“Another one for MCDM’S Arcadia. This represents the end of time and hope for a character that is cursed to be a monstrous beast for the rest of his life.”
