    Tails Tavern - Environment Design/Illustration
    A selkie family opened a tavern/inn family bussiness, because they want to serve dishes with land and sea ingredients. Sometimes they will go to land to obtain ingredients but they had to be careful as to not get discovered by humans. Selkie mythology is originally from celtic and nordic culture, but I want the vibe to be more tropical, which is why I loosely base the culture (clothing) on areas with maritime culture like hawaii/polynesia and some areas in Indonesia. illustrator

    Camper on the hill/Stella Arva - Environment Design/ Illustration
    Stell Arva is a story that follows Stella, a passionate young aspiring astronomer, and her grumpy cat companion, Orion. Ever since she was a child, Stella has been fascinated by the mysteries of the night sky, shooting stars, distant galaxies, eclipses, and unexplained cosmic phenomena. Determined to turn her passion into a lifelong journey, she converts an old bus into a fully equipped mobile observatory and camper, allowing her to travel wherever the stars lead her. Accompanying her is Orion, a grumpy space cat with a permanent scowl and a habit of causing trouble at the worst possible moments. Despite his grumpy personality, Orion is fiercely loyal to Stella and often ends up helping her solve problems in unexpected ways. He seems to have an unusual sensitivity to cosmic phenomena, often reacting to strange events before anyone else notices them. Together with Orion, Stella journeys across deserts, mountains, forests, hills, and coastlines around the world. Along the way, they investigate rare astronomical occurrences and document their discoveries. For this project, I was tasked to design a character, creature and environment. illustrator envirnonmetdesign
