I am a freelance illustrator from RI, USA. Working in digital illustration using Adobe Photoshop and Procreate, and traditional media such as pen and ink, pencil, and watercolor, I enjoy telling vivid stories through my fanciful and expressive characters. Mysteriously masked dancing bears, banjo-playing raccoons, and sailing ships made of old shoes color my world. My influences include the works of the great artists of the Golden Age of illustration, a deep curiosity about science and nature and an insatiable need to know how everything works, winter weather, rainy days, and a love of hot chocolate and long walks in the woods, among many other things. As a professional illustrator, I have worked with clients who include Marloe Press, Belvoir Media Group, Balzac's Coffee Roasters, Chad Roberts Design, Girlguiding UK, and Bricks Publishing.
