Field Notes From a Tenderfoot

 A visual memoir exploring Midwestern boyhood, first crushes, and the vast emotional landscape of growing up. Inspired by scouting, summer camps, and films like Moonrise Kingdom, it captures the moment when childhood ends and the world feels impossibly big. Through sketches, textures, and storytelling, the project balances nostalgia and innocence with a quiet sense of awe and melancholy.
