The Cartographer
A hand-etched map of an imagined coastline, drawn first in ink with obsessive detail — harbors, depth markings, a compass rose worn by time.
Original Aluminum Etchings
24×36
Where imagination becomes metal
Hand-drawn designs in pencil and ink, transferred to aluminum. Each piece a singular frame from the mind's eye. Usually 5" by 7".

Owl at Dusk
A great horned owl rendered in fine ink linework, every feather suggested rather than stated. The aluminum gives the shadows a weight the paper never could.

Still Life No. 3
Three objects on a table — a glass, a folded cloth, a stone. Drawn from life in pencil, transferred to aluminum. Each object becomes a study in light.

Anatomical Heart
A biological heart rendered with the precision of a medical illustration and the texture of a woodcut. Pencil underdrawing, finished in black ink.
4×5 in
The Diver
A figure mid-descent into dark water, ink lines loosening as they drop. The aluminum catches the light in a way that mirrors the surface breaking above.
Craft
The Process
01
Imagination
Every piece starts as a vision — a scene, a feeling, a composition that demands to exist. Ideas live in sketchbooks until they're ready.
02
Pencil & Ink
The image is first drawn by hand — pencil builds the form, ink refines the detail. The drawing itself is a finished work before the metal begins.
03
Into Aluminum
The design is transferred and etched into aluminum, preserving every mark and line. Metal gives the work a permanence no paper can match.
About the Artist
A single frame,
perfectly exposed
The name 24×36 comes from the dimensions of a standard 35mm film frame — a perfect rectangle that holds one complete image. It's a reminder that a great work doesn't need scale. It needs intention.
Each piece begins as a hand-drawn original in pencil or ink, developed over time until the composition feels inevitable. Then it's etched into aluminum — a material that holds light differently than paper, that survives, that has weight.
Maximum size is 5×7 inches. Small enough to hold in your hands. Large enough to mean something.
