What is this?

It's a comic strip and podcast. I draw a snapshot of a story told to me by a guest. I elaborate on the story in a podcast so that readers can hear the voices of the person(s) featured in the comic. In this comic & podcast my father elaborates on circumstances surrounding the death of a childhood friend named George.

In Their Voice

Was George's tragic death a matter of karma or simply a matter of environment?

Maximus the Confessor Comic

This is a short comic that introduces the life of the early church father Maximus the Confessor. He would dare to defy the emperor's theological mandates. It would lead to his persecution. I illustrated this for all ages but more so for myself. I enjoy learning about the early church by turning the info into comic strips. I imagine others might enjoy it too. Use the arrows below to turn the pages!

Brianna is a little girl who wants to find home but must first face her fears.

Nameless

Brianna The Brave

Brianna The Brave

Ralph Ellison’s novel Invisible Man was the inspiration for this comic. My take was to place a nameless character navigating a surreal world full of the philosophical angst of 19th-century philosophers.

Labor of Love

Labor of Love

This story has been conceptualized visually and is not written yet. Growing up I loved reading stories that featured talking animals so I had to conceive one of my own. Please enjoy the colorful illustrations.
