Digital Art
A collection of my digital artwork. From fully painted scenes to lined, simplistic renders, I enjoy taking a variety of approaches to achieve the goal of the artwork. The majority of the works you will see are personal characters and concepts that I created to flesh out my own stories. I use Clip Studio Paint and a Huion display tablet for all my digital artwork.
Traditional Art
A collection of my traditional artwork. I mainly use pencil and ink for my sketches, but I am comfortable with watercolor and alcohol markers as well. I just recently started working with gouache, too. The majority of the works you will see are personal characters and concepts that I created to flesh out my own stories. I use a variety of papers (Cold and hard-pressed watercolor paper, Bristol cardstock, mixed media paper, and more), and have a collection of traditional art tools for all my traditional artwork. Full illustrations are made on large, heavy-duty cardstock (watercolor or otherwise).
Character Design
A collection of my character design work. I utilize a variety of mediums to flesh out a character's looks, apparel, and backstory. Some of the work I have accomplished includes character reference sheets and logo design for their specific factions. The majority of the works you will see are personal characters and concepts that I created to flesh out my own stories. I offer a complete character creation and design service. This service is especially helpful for those who have a character idea but are not sure where to start. In this service I aim to help you: 1. Figure out what your character looks like in a visual format 2. Understand how their features and apparel fits in to their world 3. Produce a quality reference sheet so that you can use it as visual reference for future projects
Stationery
A collection of my stationery products and artwork. I draft, finish, and create the designs for my stationery products myself. I then make them compatible with my own machinery that I use to cut and prepare the paper for assembly. I use a variety of high-quality papers (65lb (173gsm) textured cardstock, specialty cardstock with shimmer, foil, and other effects, as well as other styles and weight of paper for the inner cards), and have a collection of tools for making all my handmade products. While the majority of my stationery is handmade and greeting card related, I have plans to include further stationery options in the future.
Logo & Graphic Design
A collection of my logo and graphic design work. The majority of these are created for personal use, as well as utilized for embossing, stamps, and more. I can create a personalized logo or design for your own stationery or personal use. I design the logo or image in Clip Studio Paint, and then I transfer it into a vector format so that it can be cleaned up and properly formatted for use by a variety of producers (embossing, engraving, die-cutting, ink stamps, and more).
