I had the opportunity to illustrate nine iconic locations around Austin made famous by their appearances in movies for the March ‘23 issue of Tribeza magazine.
Working on this map illustration for Texas Parks & Wildlife Magazine’s special issue commemorating Texas Parks & Wildlife centennial was an unbelievable honor. This issue is beautiful celebration of such a wonderful milestone and I feel so fortunate being a part of it.
I got to draw 20 spot illustrations featuring the various activities and locations that you can do and see in the 89 parks within the state park system. The piece also required me to draw a background map and pinpoint the names of every park in their correct geographic location, which was a fun and challenging task. TXPW Mag handled the additional layout and made the piece really shine.
I can’t thank the wonderful staff of Texas Parks & Wildlife Magazine enough for pulling me into the mix on this one. Everything included in this issue is a wonderful tribute to 100 years of Texas natural history.
I worked with the Texas Highways magazine art department and retail manager to create this fun bird themed image for the Texas Highways Mercantile. It’s now available as an art print, sticker, notebook, and t-shirt. Available here.
I had a blast working on this Houston themed print. The majority of my work has been featuring Austin locations so it’s nice to take on the iconography of a new city. This print is available in my shop at here.
I worked with the team at Zilker Brewing to create a can design, t-shirt and sticker for their seasonal “Taco Tour” Mexican style lager.
I got the opportunity to work with the Kirby Hall staff to update their beloved penguin mascot. I created one color and full color options of their new friend which now appears on yard signs, t-shirts, magnets, and many school documents.
Branding and merch design for Galaxy Bicycles. Located in San Marcos, Texas, Galaxy is a hub for all thing cycling. I had the opportunity to develop the branding and t-shirt, sticker, water bottle, and hat designs for their promotional items.
Play ball! I had a blast designing the logo, mascot, and jerseys for this Austin based sandlot baseball team. The Dirty Sixers took their name from playing ball and enjoying their fair share of good times on Dirty Sixth in Austin during their college days. Check ‘em out on a diamond near you soon!
I had a blast illustrating a map and some delicious taco dishes for Tribeza’s food issue. In an article detailing the varying regional styles of tacos that you can find represented in different spots across town, I got to draw tacos from 6 different taco spots in Austin.
We’ve eaten at half of these spots already and the rest of the list will be done and dusted in two shakes.
This shirt was a fun collab with Chet Garner of the Daytripper fame. It was an exclusive tee only available at the Two Step Inn music fest in Georgetown, Texas.
Dream Project Alert!
I had the amazing opportunity to illustrate a couple of maps for Texas Parks & Wildlife Magazine. Highlighting special attractions across the State, these maps accompanied articles in the travel section.

I had the pleasure of being approached by the Austin Public Library to create some exclusive products to be sold at their gift shop in the new state-of-the-art building in downtown Austin. I created 3 postcards, a patch, and a set of 4 book themed buttons. Reading is a passion of mine so this was a dream project! Scroll down for more!
I never imagined that I’d get a chance to work with a multi Lone Star Emmy winner but here we are. Recently I’ve been working with Chet Garner and his amazing team on some branding for his Daytripper World Headquarters retail space and office in Georgetown, Texas.
If you’re not familiar, The Daytripper and his crew have been showing us fellow Texans all of the amazing spots across the state to visit, eat at, and learn about on his PBS show each Sunday. They just celebrated their 100th episode! I had the honor to work with Chet and his staff on the main logo as well as some secondary elements for their shop. Congrats to Chet and his team on their success and I can’t wait to see what’s next for y’all!
I had a blast designing this two color screen print made exclusively for my friends at Parts & Labour here in Austin. This map features over 70 neighborhoods and has nine highlighted communities that show the diverse and eclectic areas of our city.

Parts & Labour, home of Texas artists on South Congress Ave in Austin, approached me to design a map showcasing the city and the attractions around your city. The result was this 3 color 18x24” screen print proudly hanging in houses and business across town today. Scroll down for more photos.
Optimism is a tricky thing. Some days you have it, others you don’t. What does the future have in store for us? Are there signs that give us clues? I started this little art print a year ago and had to put it aside when I got real sick. It’s a palm reading with only good news. Not huge news like “everything is perfect now”, but rather small good things that happen from time to time to keep us going. I needed good news then like how we all need good news now. It’s an art print but you can also use it as a postcard to send to someone who’s on your mind.
This two color screen print was given out to friends, family, and clients to celebrate the 2016 holiday season.

Parts and Labour on S. Congress here in Austin gave me a 2 month long residency on their art wall. I spent about 4 months planning, designing, printing, and assembling all sort of succulent themed designs.
About a year ago I was approached by the Economic Development council for the city of Hidalgo, Texas to help them create a logo for a new citywide initiative focusing on economic growth. The Nueva Vida Project ("New Life" in Spanish) is a program that aims to spark a new life in historical old Hidalgo.
