Available to hire
I am an accomplished artist specializing in feminist themes and visual storytelling, with a passion for empowering women through evocative imagery. I run Olillia.com, a platform for erotic art that celebrates female empowerment and challenges boundaries around sexuality and representation.
I work across illustration, design, and education—creating work for international audiences, participating in residencies and exhibitions, and developing educational materials. I am skilled in Adobe Creative Suite and thrive on collaborating with clients to translate ideas into compelling visuals.
