"Fantasy... is, I think, not a lower but a higher form of Art, indeed the most nearly pure form, and so (when achieved) the most potent." † J.R.R. Tolkien

Commission Information

WHOAMI

Software Engineer shaped Artist with a penchant for smashing worlds, ideas, and cultures together. Fantasy and adventure are not mere forms of escape--they are arguably the highest form of art: the communication of a literal world view from one lived experience to another. You would be hard pressed to hear an artist not speak of their proudest creations with a sense of awe and wonder: as if the art came forth from somewhere--or someone--else. I am of the opinion that some of the greatest pieces of art are gifts from God to share with humankind, and I invite you to journey with me in exploring world after world in all their glory, reality, and comedy no matter where you are!
