    uniE621 Bad Dog
    A personal digital illustration piece I completed to make a statement on the stigma around and the treatment of dogs who deal with behaviorial reactivity. This is all from personal experience. I wanted to highlight the feeling of being unable to escape the judgemental gazes when your dog reacts with the use of spotlight imagery. This was a winner in the Creative Quarterly 78 Professional show! illustrator
    uniE621 Goldilocks: Bear Hunter
    A narrative illustration I created reimagining the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. What if that cowering little girl was actual a skilled huntress, intruding only to wait for the right time to strike! For this piece, I really wanted to focus on creating drama and suspense through the use of contrast and motion in the composition. illustrator
    uniE621 Beyond the Reef- Book Cover
    An ideation of a story created by Amaya Mars about a mischievous swordfish in a world ran by humanly riches. Mars specifically spoke to me about having anthropomorphic fish people as the main subjects, and I found a lot of fun exploring this unique concept! illustratorbookcover
    uniE621 Cactus Wren- Storybook Spread
    A spread mockup made during the ideation of a picture book aiming to teach children about desert birds. The vast landscape is highly detailed after the Arizona deserts where the Cactus Wren makes its home. I love the controlled color palette I worked with for this piece, and I hope to revisit this project! illustrator designer childrensbook
