Portfolio

Selected work

A rotating selection of recent pieces spanning editorial commissions, event posters, picture-book spreads, and quieter personal studies. Tap any image to read the story behind it — the brief, the medium, and how it came together.

How it works

Working together is simple

From first hello to final files, here's what a typical commission looks like. Every project is a little different, but the rhythm stays the same — clear steps, honest updates, and no surprises along the way.

01

Say hello

Send a short brief through the commission form — the subject, the size, where the art will live, and any references you love. I'll reply within a few days with availability and a quote based on scope and usage.

02

Sketch & refine

Once a deposit is in, I share rough sketches so we can settle on a direction early. We pick a favorite together, then I refine it across two rounds of feedback until the idea reads clearly and feels right.

03

Final art

You receive print-ready and web-optimized files, plus the usage rights suited to your project — editorial print, packaging, or web. Rush timelines can be arranged when a deadline is tight.

Have a project in mind?

I'd love to hear about it. Tell me a little about what you're making, and I'll get back to you within a few days with availability and a quote.

About the studio

A one-person studio that likes bright ideas

I draw warm, character-filled illustrations for editorial, publishing, and brands. Loose lines, saturated color, and a soft sense of humor run through everything I make.

A tidy illustration desk with paints and brushes

Over the past several years I've worked with magazines, publishers, and small brands to bring stories to life. Whether it's a full picture-book spread or a single spot illustration, I care about clear ideas and a friendly, inviting feel. I work in both digital and traditional media — gouache and watercolor when a piece wants texture, Procreate when a project needs to move fast without losing that hand-made touch.

When I'm not at the desk, you'll find me sketching in cafes, collecting old picture books, and slowly filling far too many sketchbooks. This is example copy you can replace with your own background, favorite tools, and the projects you'd most like to take on.

Kind words

What clients say

The final illustration was exactly the warmth we hoped for. Clear communication, on time, and a joy to work with from the first sketch.

Art director, lifestyle magazine

Our picture book came alive. The characters have so much personality, and every spread feels considered. We'll absolutely commission again.

Editor, small press

A festival poster that got stopped-in-the-street attention. Bright, playful, and completely on brief. Highly recommend.

Events lead, city festival

Good to know

Frequently asked

It depends on scope, but most single illustrations take one to two weeks including revisions. Larger projects like picture-book spreads run longer. I'll always confirm a timeline in writing before we start so the dates are clear on both sides.
