My Bio

I am a digital artist and author who focuses mostly on birds. I am also an avian-exclusive veterinarian and most of my work focuses on wild bird research and conservation. I live in Milwaukee, WI with my husband, Colin.

The Adler Chronicles

Adler Chronicles Table Art-1280

Phil Adler loved playing football and with a lot of hard work, he achieved his dream of playing professionally. But a closely guarded family secret, the ability to shape-shift into birds at will, is revealed by a mysterious rival in a painfully public way, threatening his hard-won career and the safety of his loved ones. As an investigation unfolds, he discovers his attackers have dark, shape-shifting secrets of their own, and bloody ambitions that will determine the destiny of the world. Phil’s extended family of werebirds are diverse and strong, but they may need to put aside their distrust of outsiders and seek help from some unlikely allies to save themselves and all humanity.

This is my newest novel, released in November, 2023. It's packed with transformation and, hint hint, not just birds! If you're a lover of transformation, this is YOUR book! Amazon: https://a.co/d/5rqpYCp

The Sky Calls

The Sky Calls Cover-Table Art-0800

When terminal cancer strikes in mid-life, David Geraki has to make tough choices. An experimental therapy saves his life but transforms him into an enormous eagle. With the help of his lifelong friend, he must hold on to what’s left of his humanity, accept what he’s become, and ultimately fight for his freedom.

This was my first novel, released in December, 2018. If you want a slow, medically-detailed story of what it would be like to turn into a bird, this is it. I drew extensively on my background as an avian veterinarian to bring you all the anatomic details you crave. At the same time, I worked in a plot that will paint how society may treat you after your transformation, including calling into question your human rights. You can purchase the book on my website at aetusart.com/the-sky-calls.

The Adler Chronicles is up on Kindle now, for all of you the prefer electronic book formats. What is The Adler Chronicles? tldr: A war between rival clans of werebirds and werewolves set in the modern day. Lots of transformation, action, without forgetting the strengths of diversity & family.

Just dusting off this old account. I realized I've not made any contributions to my gallery since Jan, 2017, wow! It's not that I haven't been active. Check out my website at aetusart.com and you'll see there's been plenty going on. I'm impressed with DA's changes so I think I'll rekindle my involvement here. I'll be gradually uploading some hand-picked pieces to get this gallery up to date. My biggest announcement right now is that I recently released a new novel, The Adler Chronicles, a story packed with transformation. You can check it out at aetusart.com/the-adler-chronicles. I should be releasing my third novel, Whiterock, in 2024 so stay tuned!
