BIO

An Illustrator and Graphic Artist based in NE Ohio. I do semi-realistic illustrations, working mostly with traditional materials like alcohol markers, but I also do digital work as well. Experienced with Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop & Illustrator) but use Clip Studio Paint for personal projects. I have a passion for character designing and dream of publishing my own graphic novel. I am currently developing two stories, and would love to enter the comic industry to show off my coloring skills. I come from a family of creatives and express myself through alternative fashion, which also makes it into my character designs! I am LGBT+, and so is some of my family and friends, so I find it extremely important to have this represented in my work. I do semi-realism because I take inspiration from real life, but I like to romanticize the world around me. I have been delving into more nature inspired subjects recently. I find beauty in darkness and things that others may feel are off-putting. I want to capture the allure of the mysterious and the unknown while also connecting to people through relatable and empathetic characters.
