Here’s a holiday commission I made for a colleague’s parents. They live with a robot named Elgin. Given that prompt, and that they like Jazz…this showed up.

The Resurrection Research Society
Some folks in the Land of the Dead are as interested in returning to life as we are in staying alive. Here’s a scene from a prestigious philosophical society in the Land of the Dead – The Resurrection Research Society.
This is 10″ x 10″, shown at the bottom.
The City of Lost Things
Here’s another shadow box for my upcoming show. It makes use of cut-paper shapes. The City of Lost Things (on Pine Island) is where those things that go missing turn up.
This is in a 10″ x 10″ frame. I forgot to photograph it in my studio after it was fully assembled, so here’s a photo from my phone, which shows how it turned out (in a rough, pixely way).
Charon, the ferryman shadowbox diorama
Charon, the ferryman, helps those, known as “them,” cross the Dead Sea to reach the Land of the Dead, their final reward. I’ve been wanting to do a shadowbox type diorama for a long time. This will be in an upcoming show in the city of Greenbelt. The frame is 10″ x 10″.
Vavaenvivo
I met Vanessa on Instagram. We share an interest in Squier Supersonic guitars and boutique guitar pedals. She’s engaging, open, kind, and so very talented. So I made her this Tarot tin.
Please follow her and check out her music. She’s great!
Joie de Mort
Waking up in the Land of the Dead, our protagonist finds they are not alone! What Joy! What fun, to start the next adventure companionably and fortified with excellent company!
