I’m Justin, a Santa Fe–based creator working across illustration, design, digital media, web, print, and hands-on production.
I work full time in fine-art printing and production, including scanning, proofing, color correction, large-format printing, laser work, and custom fabrication. I’ve spent most of my life making things, learning new tools as I need them, and moving between traditional art and newer technology without treating them as separate worlds.
My work ranges from drawing and comic art to branding, websites, digital production, fabrication, writing, and personal creative projects. Stray Coyote Studio is my personal site: the place where all of those parts of my life meet, along with whatever I decide to build next.

Have something you need designed, built, improved, or figured out? I’m already employed full time and I’m not looking for another job. I do occasionally take on outside work when the project is genuinely interesting, the fit is right, and it’s worth spending my limited free time on.
Need a website—or need your current one to work better? I can build and improve websites, organize customer information, automate follow-ups and customer accounts, connect forms and payments, and help set up systems that keep jobs, customers, and inventory organized without creating more work for you.
Need a logo, or want to improve the one you already have? I can help with branding, ads, business cards, posters, layouts, signage design, image cleanup, and finished artwork for print or digital use.
Need something original? I work in illustration, comic art, character design, digital painting, traditional drawing, and selected commissions.
Have an idea, problem, or project you’re not quite sure how to tackle? Reach out. If it’s something I can help with, I’ll let you know.
