About

I am a writer/poet, digital artist, and independent researcher, and publisher of esoterica. I have an Interdisciplinary Masters Degree in English, Poetry, Printmaking, and Design, as well as an MFA in Creative Writing. I have a background in handmade textiles, book arts, teaching Photoshop, and editing and publishing small press journals. I practice magic/theurgy, divination, and I am an avid Tarot card reader and astrology enthusiast. For over 25 years I have been fascinated with the art and literature of the 19th-century English and French Symbolists of the fin de siècle. As an animist, I believe that everything in this world is imbibed with a spirit. I believe the Symbolist lithographer and painter Odilon Redon knew this and sought to invoke chimeric spirit into all of his evocative, sublime, and enigmatic visions. In 2020 I was called to gather, digitally enhance, and interpret Redon’s art, aligning it to the Tarot card format. I am excited to introduce the first edition of Tarot Chimera via Kickstarter Summer 2021. Since then I have published: Tarot Emblemata GOLD & Tarot Emblemata Chromata, Starlore Astronomical Tarot, Terra Incognita, Astronomia Oracle, and Sublime Thresholds Tarot. I am currently writing a nonfiction book called SYNTHĒMATA & SYMBOLA ~ Recovering Our Deep Symbolic Imagination and the Magical Practice of Synchromysticism Through Esoteric Traditions, Myths, Oracles & Archetypes and its companion yearly Workbook ~ Traveling in the Slipstream of the Synchromystic Path.
