Editorial & Publishing
Whether it’s fine line work, intricate textures, or tiny elements that bring a piece to life, I love creating illustrations that invite a closer look. The small details can make all the difference, adding depth and personality to every piece - perfect for book covers, spot illustrations and other editorial projects. I generally work in traditional media first (including watercolours, pen and ink, graphite and coloured pencils) before scanning and digitizing the elements to allow me to manipulate them using my graphic design skills and experience. I also love to integrate hand-lettered text into my work, creating a unique connection between imagery and story.
