I’ve been drawing and creating for my entire life.

As a child, I drew constantly. I just couldn’t get enough of it. I never wanted to stop!

So I didn’t. In 2011, I graduated from the University of South Dakota with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting and graphic design.

Today, I work as a freelance artist. I specialize in illustration and surface design created by hand with traditional art materials. Ink and watercolor are my current loves. I also enjoy working in colored pencil, acrylic paint, marker, pen, and more.

I’ve been obsessed with drawing “megafauna,” like dinosaurs and whales, since I was a kid. Some things never change! I used the online moniker Omegafauna for many years, and the name stuck when I opened my first art shop online. Eventually I fully adopted it as my “brand” name.

My interest in nature over the years has expanded to include our entire planet of flora, fauna, and wild places. Conservation and celebration of our natural world is at the heart of why and what I create.

Thank you for stopping by!
