Byzantine

Without a doubt, Byzantine is my most ambitious work I've published so far. It's just over 200 pages of art and storytelling set in a fantastic world of afterlife adventures and treats. With over twenty illustrations, this is the largest collection of my artwork in print anywhere!  You can read about it on Amazon.

This book explores the absurdity of people existing in Heaven as they do on Earth. The protagonist seeks what’s most important to her. A bureaucratic system of deeply imperfect people hold her back. It’s romantic, it’s a bit comical, and it’s honest about the absurd hopes that we have of recognizing each other if we meet on the other side. It’s a dream, but byzantine.

That's all I'll say about it for now. I have one more trick up my sleave after this...
