Creating artwork with touches of magic and whimsy is my specialty! With mediums ranging from watercolor and oil pastel to even digital work like Procreate, I'm always the most happy when I'm creating illustrations that imbue a sense of nostalgia, wonder, and merriment. I would love to work on projects such as: - personal painting / portrait commissions - children's book illustration - wedding invitations - tattoo design My style lends heavily from traditional storybooks I read growing up: "Madeline," "Frog and Toad," "Chrysanthemum," "Strega Nona," so on and so forth. If you like cozy fairytales and vintage storybooks, you've found the right illustrator for you :)
