My father-in-law Rob Clack passed away this past Friday. He suffered a massive stroke this past August with a number of complications, but this was very much unexpected. Please consider donating to his GoFundMe to support his wife and two young children. Thank You! Link in Bio.

May 29, 2025 - A pigment transfer print scrubbed but not yet cut down to the final 8 x 10 inch print. You can see the white paper along the edges from the original photocopy. In the background is a 23 x 30 inch marker drawing of some vinyl records in progress. I use the Pigma Microns as my detail markers.

Vice Magazine, The Fiction Issue, Cover Drawing, 2009
This is a commission drawing from 2009 for @vice Vice Magazine. It was a 3 day deadline and I honestly have no idea how I pulled it off. I’d only been using permanent markers for a little over a year at this point and this was my first drawing larger than 8 x 10 inches. It was by far my most complex drawing to date, but ultimately a catalyst for the larger drawings of stacked media I’ve made over the years.
