Hello curious stranger! I'm an active freelance artist and painter in book and editorial illustration, with clients from around the world and awards. I work mostly in Gouache/ watercolor & digitally, Also have experience running a 100k+ art community promoting good professional habits. When I'm not painting, I indulge in beautiful books, video games, crafts, cats, geodes, fossils, and the internet with a dash of Netflix fills any of my spare time (Keeping the Closed Captioning on for the sake of my neighbors' and partner's sanity).
