this article covered the development of brainwashing during the Cold War era.

SKETCHES
here’s a view of some preliminary sketches i started off with to get a sense of how things began.
ATLAS OBSCURA
in defense of eating brains
in recent history, eating brains had fallen out of fashion——but all across the world, many cultures have long thought of these juicy morsels as quite the delicacy.
Atlas Obscura tasked me in creating poster-like illustrations that honored these dishes & perhaps even entice the viewer to try them out!

THE BAFFLER
NEVERNEVERLAND
this wild, horror-fiction short story surrounds a group of elderly ladies & one newfoundland dog that wreak havoc one night at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.
here, i am evoking Japanese horror film, House (1977) rehashed to fit this story. this cult classic reference point immediately speaks to the elements of horror, comedy, & surreality that Neverneverland envelopes the reader into.
