HOWDY!

Howdy! I do a lot of things: illustration, design, animation, letterpress printmaking, bookbinding, oil painting, portraiture, photography, art direction, architectural visualization, woodworking, building, creative direction. I have mixed this wide selection of skills together over a broad career that began as a letterpress printer, moved into publishing design, branched off into freelancing for all sorts of agencies and studios, eventually landing in agency and educational work. In 2020, I obtained my MFA in design from the Vermont College of Fine Arts and published Homeward Nomad, Vol. 1— a selected anthology of sketchbook entries from the last couple decades. After over 20 years of obsessing about Norway, I finally succeeded at moving here in 2023 and set about finding new adventures, meaningful work, and life in general.

My work is focused on creativity’s relationship to technology, critically exploring its practical and societal impacts and encouraging self-reflection on its ethics through compositional subject matter, blending historic and contemporary media, or both. If you’re interested in these subjects or are a member of the Oslo creative or educational community, let’s be friends!
