It’s been a year full of exploration with my illustrations exploring more creatures, characters and of course - lots of punchy colour! Excited to see where my illustration career takes me in 2024 ❤️ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ #illustration #art #speedpaint #environmentart #digitalpainting #digitalart #animation #conceptart #digitalartist #conceptartist #artistsoninstagram #instaart #procreate #photoshop #photoshopart #nature #illustrationartist #artist #visualdevelopment #backgroundart #illustrationart #artvsartist

Another one of my projects with @itsmetalent and @advocateart01 with the goal being painting a middle grade Fantasy book cover that feels whimsical and poetical. Loved painting the flora with this one. ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ #illustration #art #environmentart #digitalpainting #digitalart #animation #conceptart #childrensillustration #colours #digitalartist #conceptartist #artistsoninstagram #instaart #mexicanart #procreate #photoshop #photoshopart #nature #pleinairartist #heavypaint #illustrationartist #artist #visualdevelopment #backgroundart #illustrationart #adventurebook #middlegradebooks #fantasy #fantasyart

Another one of my projects with @itsmetalent and @advocateart01 with the goal being painting a middle grade adventure book cover with lots of jungle greens and contrasting blues and purples. 💚 ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ #illustration #art #environmentart #digitalpainting #digitalart #animation #conceptart #childrensillustration #colours #digitalartist #conceptartist #artistsoninstagram #instaart #mexicanart #procreate #photoshop #photoshopart #nature #pleinairartist #heavypaint #illustrationartist #artist #visualdevelopment #backgroundart #illustrationart #adventurebook #middlegradebooks

Life is lifing pretty tough right now and I’ve been in a creative slump but had to draw this last minute for #internationalwomensday Here’s to all the woman in our lives that make life that much better - The Mothers, sisters, friends and fighters ❤️ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ #illustration #art #digitalpainting #digitalart #animation #conceptart #colours #digitalartist #conceptartist #artistsoninstagram #instaart #mexicanart #procreate #photoshop #photoshopart #illustrationartist #artist #illustrationart

One of my projects for my mentorship with @itsmetalent and @advocateart01 with the goal being to capture the likeness of a historical figure while drawing them in a place that relates to who they are. ⌇ I went with the insprorational Frida Kahlo who throughout her life was subjected to hardships like contracting polio at a young age and being in a serious accident that made her wheelchair bound but never once did Frida let her love for art falter - How it should be really! ⌇ I surrounded Frida with her love of colour seen in her glorious studio with lots of Mexican inspired pattern, bric a brac and Frida’s love of animals including spider monkeys, fawns, parrots and dogs, a throughly enjoyable project that marries my love and colour and history of artists. 💛💛💛 ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ #illustration #art #environmentart #digitalpainting #digitalart #animation #conceptart #childrensillustration #colours #digitalartist #conceptartist #artistsoninstagram #instaart #mexicanart #procreate #photoshop #photoshopart #nature #pleinairartist #heavypaint #illustrationartist #artist #visualdevelopment #backgroundart #illustrationart #fridakahlo #frida #middlegradebooks

Something a bit different - collage work created from experimenting with my photographs of texture created from combining household ingredients into a reactive concoction. Lots of fun making this! And I firmly believe artists should never niche down too much and continue exploring and delving into different mediums! ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ #illustration #art #environmentart #digitalpainting #digitalart #animation #conceptart #colours #digitalartist #conceptartist #artistsoninstagram #instaart #procreate #photoshop #photoshopart #nature #pleinairartist #illustrationartist #artist #visualdevelopment #backgroundart #illustrationart #collage #collageart #texture #collageartwork #collageartist #collageart #collagedigital

I want to get better at characters and add them in a way that compliments the environments that I love to draw so I plan on practicing a lot with quick fluid like gestures full of shapes and texture. Here’s the first few of these stylish gents ❤️ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ #illustration #art #speedpaint #environmentart #digitalpainting #digitalart #animation #conceptart #Thumbnails #colours #digitalartist #conceptartist #artistsoninstagram #instaart #procreate #photoshop #photoshopart #nature #pleinairartist #illustrationartist #artist #visualdevelopment #backgroundart #illustrationart #streetstyle #characterdesign #characterart #character

I haven’t been very active here as of late I’m super busy with illustrating other projects so here’s an oldie that I reworked by adding characters 💃☀️ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ ⌇ #illustration #art #speedpaint #environmentart #digitalpainting #digitalart #animation #conceptart #Thumbnails #colours #digitalartist #conceptartist #artistsoninstagram #instaart #procreate #photoshop #photoshopart #nature #pleinairartist #illustrationartist #artist #visualdevelopment #backgroundart #illustrationart #spanishart
