-Cryptid Menagerie-
With my Cryptids series I give the characters in my imagination a physical form. Doing this evokes the same sense of discovery and excitement that comes with witnessing creatures out in the world. I want to push these feelings further by exploring these unique beings in a variety of different mediums and methodologies, allowing them to take shape through the journey they and I share together. The term Cryptid speaks not just to my creatures themselves, but also the kind of reaction and fascination that comes from stories like the Loch Ness monster. Wherein the desire to believe in this larger than life majestic creature leads people to seek out and tell stories of what they hope to discover.
