Introduction	I'm an illustrator based in Connecticut with an M.F.A. in illustration from the Savannah College of Art and Design - Atlanta. I love fantasy illustration, watercolor, and combining the two to create things that should exist, but don't! What's a 'featherseed'? A bird, of course! Feathers grow on birds, therefore birds are seeds for feathers! I also felt it was a fitting name for a journal that shows the process of my work, since birds are so prominent in my art. Each sketch is a seed, in a way.

Why does the taste of pennies remind you of losing a tooth?

Because there's copper in pennies and...I think there's a small amount of copper in blood? Or maybe I just fail at science.
