Tab Where?

My address often confuses clients, friends, and family. Since 2008, I've lived in an Airstream travel trailer, roaming the streets, just a few block from the Pacific Ocean. I own a condo in Boulder, CO, but abandoned it to renters when I matriculated at Scripps in 2005. Since Nov. 15, 2000, a mail-forwarding company in Texas has collected all of my mail. They ship it to where ever I live on a weekly basis. As of 2012, I live in San Francisco.

I'm working on a deeper portfolio. In the mean time, you'll see here a random assortment of images ranging from my first cover, completed in 1998, through several cover bids for various scientists, to my current experiments with Brad Marsh's data and my own algorithms. I'll post explanations and other information soon.
