Edith Hamilton's Mythology is being reissued this upcoming January as an oversized, mass market edition. I got to not only design the cover but use one of my own drawings. This is a big first for me, so needless to say, I am so ridiculously happy and get giddy every time I think about it. And what an honor it was to work on this particular book! European mythology has not only been a huge influence on my art and design, but also my life in general and Edith Hamilton is such an important figure in the field.
Below is the cover design, the art by itself and the original sketch:

Tats!
Occasionally, I get hired to do tattoo designs. My friend Sara hired me to design this one for her. She came up with the concept of Fenris being bound inside of the Teiwaz Rune. Took a little while to really work out the best way to do it, but I am pretty damn happy with the results. She is too and that's really what matters.
Freshly inked.
