Bejeweled Planets

A universe inspired by you, illustrated by me. Each "Planet" is inspired by a person's personality, aesthetic, likes and dislikes. 8 billion people in the world make up 8 billion Planets, because each of us is a star. You and the planet you inspire me to draw become a part of the Bejeweled Planets community. And we are so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. In a world of darkness, how lucky we are that one another's light guides the way.

When you look at my Planets, I hope you know you’re seeing yourself. I hope you feel beautiful and soft and brilliant. You’re always welcomed in my orbit.

Somewhere on This Planet of Ours

Here are snippets of the world that were, only for a moment, real. A dog passing a cathedral in Brussels, espresso cups after last call at a Seoul cafe, a cat curled up napping in Jakarta. I use found paper like newspaper, coffee sleeves, and napkins to capture the beauty of the moment then and there. Each piece accompanied by a photograph taken on site and a certificate detailing the exact time and geographic coordinates of when and where it was drawn.

Every moment the world looks different. When the moment is gone, so is that scene. When you look at my art, I hope you feel completely and utterly transported to the moment. Not just because of the depicted scene, but also the medium and presentation. Because the world is a beautiful place, and that moment is never coming back.
