yes dog motif, yes pomegranate symbolism, yes fig tree metaphor, I hear you, but when are we going to talk about a walnut? you lower yourself to pick it up, knees wet and dirty with mud, you hold the earthly pebble coated in a layer of skin, scalp like, and you think if you just break it open with one sharp sting of the hammer that there would be a sweet reward in the centre, a fruit of your labour, but it is bitter and sad, and shaped like viscera, and your fingers are stained a yellow brown that will never wash out. when

Now that the production has happened, I can finally show you guys, after a month of work and a few weeks of eager waiting!

Recently, I was commissioned through my college to paint a bespoke Magdalena for the Maryland Opera, for use in their production of Tosca. She’s 6 feet tall and 4 feet long and the biggest painting I’ve ever made! She’s also unfinished by request of the opera. I’m so proud of her.

Bonus— wrap painting I made for their gorgeous and gorgeously talented soprano, Christine Lyons. She deserves a portrait of her own in every way.

I get so confused whenever I see an AI-generated sea slug of a species that doesn't even exist, like is the world not beautiful enough for you? Do you care not for Babakina anadoni...?

Nemesignis banyulensis?

Bornella anguilla?

Phyllodesmium poindimiei?

Sea angel??
