Illustration

This section features illustrations created for books, stories, characters, and creative concepts.

Many of these pieces were created to support storytelling—whether for children’s books, whimsical character designs, or narrative ideas that grew from short stories and creative experiments.

The Fox and the Cat – Vector Illustration in Adobe Illustrator

This illustration was created as part of an Aesop’s Fables assignment, focusing on The Fox and the Cat. It marks my first fully illustrated story scene and played a major role in shaping the clean, bold style I now use in children’s book illustration. The goal was to keep the composition simple while allowing the characters to carry the emotional weight of the scene. The fox sits confidently with its back turned, while the cat’s … Read more

Metrosexual Humpty Dumpty: Character Design in Ink

Meet Metrosexual Humpty Dumpty—mustached, scarfed, booted, and absolutely unbothered by the zombie apocalypse. This simple ink outline character began as part of my Zombies in the Nursery series, where familiar childhood icons are dropped into wildly inappropriate horror situations. In his story, Humpty doesn’t just fall off a wall—he unintentionally saves the day when zombies invade a royal birthday parade. It’s dark, ridiculous, and exactly the kind of storytelling playground I love to explore. What … Read more

Graphite, Grit, and a Bit of Obsession

Every artist has that one medium they keep crawling back to like a comfortable bad habit. For me, it’s pencil. Not flashy. Not trendy. Just graphite, pressure, patience—and a borderline unhealthy attention to detail. These three pieces span years of work, from high school all the way to more recent explorations, and they show exactly why I’ve never been able to quit this medium. Each one uses a completely different approach, but they all come … Read more

Christopher Walken Caricature – First Digital Pencil Portrait

This was my very first attempt at a caricature — and my first time trying to recreate the feel of graphite using Adobe Fresco. Digital pencil is a completely different creature than real graphite, but this project taught me so much about texture, pressure, and letting the weirdness lead the way. If you haven’t already guessed, this is Christopher Walken, one of my absolute favorite actors and a true national treasure. I originally aimed for … Read more

Sunflower Life-Cycle: A Hand-Drawn Ink Series Exploring Form and Movement

This sunflower life-cycle series began as a study in shape and transformation. Each illustration was created by hand using ink and pencil, focusing on the evolving structure of the sunflower—from full bloom to curling petals to the dense, textured seed head. Working in black and white strips everything down to essentials. Without color to carry the image, the eye is forced to follow rhythm, shadow, contrast, and line. Every curve, every cluster of seeds, every … Read more

Frog & Fly: Whimsical Digital Watercolor in Motion

I have always loved frogs. They’re expressive without trying. They sit like tiny philosophers, then launch themselves into chaos without warning. That combination of stillness and sudden movement makes them perfect subjects for illustration. This small frog-themed series was created digitally in Adobe Fresco using watercolor brushes layered with hand-drawn ink outlines. I enjoy blending the softness of watercolor textures with loose, expressive linework. The ink keeps the personality sharp; the watercolor keeps it organic. … Read more
