ILLUSTRATIONS

I focus a lot on emotion and storytelling in my pieces. Each one plays with a different mood or technique, but they all lean into psychological horror. I like using expression, color, and pose to hint at something deeper going on with the character.

Works are arranged from most recent (present) to older pieces from 2024 to show growth and development over time.
