On this page, I have a few pieces I’m quite proud of. Many of my illustrations have a fantastical base, as I think the imagination is so important. What’s life without a little whimsy?

Character Design

As an animator, character design is a crucial step in creation. From shape studies, to turnarounds, to final works, character design is probably one of my favorite things to do in art. I love making up little stories and little character that fit into new worlds of my own making.

A few years ago, I designed a series of whale sharks based off of interesting drinks I’ve heard of throughout the years. I’ve always been interested in whale sharks, ever since I had a presentation on them in 5th grade.

My first project on these cute creatures had them simply floating on the page. Here, I decided to give them their own habitats in the drinks of their name sakes.

Designing comics is kind of like storyboarding in animation. Without the worry of “how to make this move” it’s a simple joy to make little stories with little boxes. There’s so much you can do in making comics, from fun panel shapes, to expressive speech bubbles, to beautiful illustrations, comic are so fun to make!
