Why all the cows?

Because I love them.

I always have, and I have found media largely lacking in bovine affinity. I enjoyed the flying cow scene in Twister (1996) as much as anyone, but I do wish cows were not so often a gag animal. They’re beautiful creatures, and we have a long, involved history with them as humans, and I think they deserve more respect. Also, they’re cute! Look at ‘em!

How long have you been an artist?

Like most artists, I reckon I was born one. As a child I could always be found drawing, and many of my school assignments were bordered with doodles. (I still have to doodle when I take notes, otherwise I can’t pay attention). I started considering art as a career in high school, though it took me a few years after graduating to enroll in an art college. Long story short, my attempts at joining the animation industry pipeline didn’t work, and neither did any art-related backup. Turns out it is a very competitive, saturated market, and I’m good, but I wasn’t quite good enough to make the cut no matter what I did. Not to mention, my particular school did not equip its students very well to exist in the real world. Cue me joining the con circuit in 2018, and I’ve been a work in progress ever since! If I can’t find a stable career with a company, then I will continue to try and hew one on my own!

Do you sell your art anywhere in stores or in person?

Yes! I have prints and stickers that I rotate regularly at Ki Coffee Shop in downtown Beaverton, OR. Aside from art by local and small artists, you can get supreme lattes there. It’s also small and family owned! Otherwise, I do vend regularly at assorted comic cons in Oregon state, usually in Portland, Salem, Redmond, and Medford. The best way to stay tuned is by following me on instagram or facebook!

I see art in your gallery but not in your shop. How can I buy it?

Depending on the art piece, my art may be available as a sticker, charm, print, or something else! If you want something specific, feel free to shoot me a message with the title of the art and what format you’re interested in, and we can see about setting up an order! I can’t promise all art will be available in all formats, due to costs and minimum order quantities, but I would be happy to consider it!

What social media are you most active on?

2025 has brought some swift and unexpected changes to social media. I am still active on instagram, as it has the largest gathering of my supporters and community, but these days I update my Patreon on a more reliable basis. I post plenty of content for free members if you’re interested! I also have accounts with tumblr, bluesky, facebook, twitch, and youtube if one of those suits you better!

How do you set your prices?

Learning to price one’s own work is a journey in and of itself. I am the sole employee; designer, sometimes producer, and marketing agent. When I partner with print shops to manufacture physical items like stickers, prints, charms, and notebooks, I am subject to their costs as well as my own. When you’re buying a product, you’re not just buying the raw materials, but the time and effort expended to create it. The sketch, the digitization, the refining, the print prep, the ink, the packaging, the shipping. Hours, days, weeks, more of work. But then I have to consider just what a person is buying and how they’ll be using it in their life, and predict a reasonable cost while still rewarding myself for that time and the prices I had to pay for production. It’s an organic process that’s ever developing.

Something to remember when supporting small creators and businesses, is that they generally operate with high costs and low profit margins, so if something seems expensive, take a moment to think of all the steps taken to create that piece, and remember that artists want you to buy their product, so they’re offering a price that they think is fair to you and themselves. Thank you for supporting independent creators!

What about refunds and all that?

Due to the nature of my small venture, I am unable to perform straight-up refunds like many large businesses do. However if there is an issue with your product; it arrived damaged, or if your one-of-a-kind item is not up to spec, then contact me below and we can discuss an exchange. I can provide a shipping label for you to return the product in, and I can send a new one out! Something along those lines- just shoot me a message!
