About

Freelance illustrator specializing in traditional mediums, digital illustration, as well as themes such as nostalgia, fairytales, children’s books, cartooning and comics.
I earned my BFA from the Maine College of Art in Illustration and have been freelancing since 2006.
I’ve worked with international clients such as Re-ment Miniatures (Japan), large publishing companies like Kappa Publishing, as well as a winning design on Threadless.com. I’ve illustrated numerous children’s books throughout 2006-2016, and was represented by The July Group NYC for ten years before they closed their doors permanently. I’m versatile with styles, mediums, and content- ranging from Album art, cartooning, manga, portraiture, to children’s book, sci fi and fantasy art, and currently I’m most passionate about art deco illustration and working on the ipad pro with Procreate. I’m trying to get back into the field of freelance illustration after about 6 years of solely focusing on my own personal work and giftware design for my independent art business, in which I sell prints and other gift items of my personal works.

One of many illustrations I created for Kappa Publishing, these were for mass produced coloring books still being sold nationwide at dollar tree stores. I illustrated about 100 pages for them, including themes like fairies, whimsical, retro, art deco, food items, and more. This was a year long job, working with them through my agent The July Group, at the time. (The July Group is now closed permanently)
