About Project
Growing up around my grandparents, who were fond of books and things of old, like most grandparents. I’d browse through their bookshelves and find these old illustrated catholic bibles. These were no childish-looking pictures; basically, they were compilations of known art masterpieces that, put together, would visually present the entire biblical narrative. And although I didn’t comprehend it all at the time, these stories felt larger than life, mysterious and exciting; my imagination was absorbed entirely.

Art Direction, Design and Illustration
THE PROMISE is the epic journey in search of the promised Savior. Written by Jason Helopoulos and published by Crossway, I was honored to reimagine and illustrate stories that have shaped the world’s imagination for Millennia.
The art in this book is the compilation of design and art sensibilities found in design, mid-century illustration, animation, comics, physical theater, sculpture, and film. These have been a recurrent source of inspiration for me.
