Sandy
The books I've created are inspired by the paintings I've made over the years and my concern for the ecological challenges and environmental issues facing our world. I don't think I could have created this book if i had not experienced Hurricane Sandy firsthand. I dedicate this book to all the brave people of New York City who survived it and live to tell about it. It is the 5th installment in the Broken Skyline series.

Empire Snake Building succumbs to nature. * The PDF's have links to videos about the story.
