While my expertise is capturing a person's (or animal's) likeness, my drawing and painting skills translate well to illustrations done from imagination. I believe my work displays a whimsical style, yet is more detailed and realistic than other illustrators. These skills translate perfectly to children's book illustrations, or book covers. I have also worked on promotional items for Breweries. I pride myself on working with the client to produce an engaging illustration that successfully portrays the client's vision.
I received my Bachelor's Degree in English, but my passion was always drawing and painting. I decided to take my passion seriously, and began to take courses in drawing and painting both online, and at my community college. After about a year of hard work I began to work as a freelance illustrator while continuing my education. I have been professionally illustrating for the past year now, and continue to improve my skills through education.
