About

I’m a concept artist and illustrator specialising in realistic environments, props, and custom costume/design concepts, blending traditional fundamentals with modern digital workflows. I enjoy building clear, industry-standard design pipelines for VFX and games, using a mix of 2D and 3D techniques to create designs that feel functional, realistic, and production-ready.

I also contribute across the wider creative process, from art direction and team collaboration to video editing and content preparation. Whether mentoring through concept stages or supporting art teams on real projects, I focus on strong communication, attention to detail, and dependable iteration based on feedback—so the final output stays aligned with the team’s goals and style.
