Why subscribe?

Sometimes I send out a newsletter.  I aim for once a month. I can't promise that they will arrive on the same date each time, but I can promise that they are never boring.  So, if you like unexpected correspondence and want a peek at the things rattling around my brain, then you’ll definitely want to subscribe.

I'll also keep you updated on my illustration work, personal projects, process, prints, and my studies. The algorithms on Instagram are shoddy, so here is the best place to make sure you don’t miss a thing!


And please don't be shy, I love unexpected correspondence too!
