Artist's Comments
About Me:
I am an Art Director and Illustrator working in the Dallas area. 

About "Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea:"
A proposed series of illustrations for a reprinting of the Jules Verne classic.  The illustrations feature reliefs depicting characters, moments, and elements from the story.  The growth and lighting give the sense that the reliefs were lost long ago at sea.
