nekokaiju@gmail.comI'm a freelance illustrator currently working on several projects including various different sketch cards for Topps and cover art for Red5 comics. I just recently finished doing promotional artwork for Indiana Jones IV. My free time I spend at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. There I teach art classes, give tours, design worksheets, and help out with their websites. My influences are from magazines and ephemera especially from around the turn of the century. I have done cover art for NASA and Collectible Card game art for Fantasy Flight Games.
