Hello,
I’m an illustrator working in gouache, pastel, and digital media, creating painterly, texture-rich artwork inspired by nature, storytelling, and the beauty of everyday observation.
I'm drawn to botanicals, gardens, food, and narrative subjects. Color plays a central role in my process, and I enjoy using layered textures and painterly marks to build depth, mood, and a sense of place. I love studying the natural world, experimenting with traditional and digital techniques, and discovering new ways to tell stories through images.
I'm interested in editorial illustration projects, children's books, literary fiction covers, and packaging design.

I hope my work brings a little joy to your day :)
If you'd like to collaborate, discuss a project, or simply say hello, I'd love to hear from you.
