I am a color-loving illustrator who never tires of learning and creating. I use both traditional and digital illustration techniques, and even a mixture of the two, to create unique matte artwork. Having studied anthropology and fashion design, I have a particular fascination with everyday life and culture, and love using this as inspiration in my work. I will finish my Masters in Fine Arts in Illustration at the Savannah College of Art and Design this Spring, and look forward to growing my freelance illustration portfolio!
