At age 16 I was hired by Palaye Royale to complete a few merch items as can be seen above. I had been a huge fan of their music and eventually managed to get my work to them. Their drummer, Emerson Barrett, is also an incredibly talented artist and took note of my work. He ended up taking me on as a bit of a mentee for a few years while we completed these projects. The first a 150 card, hand drawn tarot deck which we sold out of three times online. The second a zine sort of newspaper publication featuring art and writing.
