I am a visual artist and illustrator with a fine art background, currently based in the Netherlands. My practice blends painting and digital illustration, often focusing on atmosphere, emotion, and intimate storytelling. I love creating warm, poetic imagery that invites viewers into quiet, magical worlds. Working primarily with Adobe Photoshop and Procreate, I have experience designing book covers and digital artworks with consistent visual style and layered composition. I’m particularly drawn to soft lighting, glowing tones, and delicate details that bring characters to life. I have a special interest in illustrating gentle, whimsical stories for children, capturing the warmth of family and the magic of nighttime. My multicultural perspective informs my sense of color and mood, allowing me to create scenes that feel both gentle and imaginative. I enjoy collaborative projects, welcome feedback, and work carefully to craft visual stories that resonate emotionally with audiences—especially children and families.
