Some illustrators learn their craft from tutorials. I learned mine from a 500-year-old tradition. I work in two disciplines: painterly children's book illustration and 2D game art. Both grow from the same root, classical fine art training at the National College of Arts, Lahore, where I studied painting techniques developed in the Mughal era. That foundation is what gives my work its depth, whether it ends up on a bookshelf or a screen. My work has been featured by BBC News, exhibited at the Dubai and Abu Dhabi Art Fairs, and used by clients including Disney and international publishing houses across North America and Europe. On the game side, I have worked since 2019 as Senior Concept Artist at VirtualBrix in Detroit, developing character and environment art for shipped titles. For children's books, I handle the full pipeline: character development, page composition, and print-ready files built to KDP, IngramSpark, and publisher spec. My style is painterly and expressive, built to stop a parent in a bookstore and hold a child's attention through every page. For game projects, I deliver concept art, 2D character sheets, environment illustrations, and stylized assets. I understand production requirements and can work from an art direction brief, match an existing style guide, or build a visual language from scratch. If you have a project in either area, send me a message with your brief and I will tell you exactly how I would approach it.

Après avoir enseigné le français pendant plus de 40 ans et toujours pratiqué l'anglais écrit, je suis devenue relectrice, traductrice et prête plume sur Upwork (en novembre 2020). J'ai effectué une cinquantaine de missions, de la réécriture d'articles à la correction de thèses, en passant par la rédaction de biographies ou de contes pour enfants, la mise en forme de CV ou de lettres de motivation, la rédaction de scenarii. Il m'est aussi arrivé de traduire d'anglais en français des ouvrages à connotation historique, ou des sites commerciaux. J'aime les mots et je suis très pointilleuse quant au travail que je fournis. Ma plus longue mission a consisté à relire, corriger, parfois réécrire une méthode d'apprentissage du français pour anglophones. J'écris des nouvelles et de la poésie. J'ai une formation universitaire en Lettres Modernes, en psychologie et en prévention santé, et un diplôme de chef d'établissement primaire et secondaire. Je dispose de temps puisque aujourd'hui à la retraite, et je suis très enthousiaste à l'idée de continuer à travailler sur Upwork, tant les missions qui me sont confiées sont intéressantes et les relations avec les clients agréables. J'attends vos propositions avec une grande impatience! I have taught French for over 40 years and always practiced written English, then I became a proofreader, translator and ghostwriter on Upwork (in November 2020). I've carried out around fifty assignments, from rewriting articles to correcting theses, writing biographies and children's stories, formatting CVs and cover letters, and drafting screenplays. I've also translated historical books and commercial websites from English into French. I love words and I'm very fussy about the work I do. My longest assignment was to proofread, correct and sometimes rewrite a complete course for French anglophone learners. I write short stories and poetry. I have a university degree in Lettres Modernes, psychology and health prevention, and a diploma in primary and secondary school management. I have a lot of time available since I'm retired, and I'm very enthusiastic about going on working for Upwork, as the assignments I'm given are so interesting and the relationships with customers so pleasant. I look forward to hearing from you! Kind regards.
