Available to hire
I’m an illustrator and graphic designer from Oakland, CA, USA. I have made illustrations, and artwork across many platforms; editorial, textile design, product packaging, and museum showroom. I also do catalog layout and graphic work for publishing. My artwork often uses watercolor and ink as a primary medium, before continuing the process in photoshop, illustrator, or Procreate. I can adapt my style and format to any needs, and I can do any form of photo editing, curation, or project management. Please see my portfolio sites at these links:
