I am an experienced illustrator in mediums such as Faber-Castell pastel colored pencils, Caran D'Ache Luminance colored pencils, Holbein gouache and watercolor paint, and charcoal pencils. My pieces are meant to evoke hope and love for wildlife and nature in those who view them. The illustrations I create are a culmination of interdisciplinary studies on painting, drawing, and environmental policy, wildlife conservation, and activism. I hope to create depictions of animals and nature that are scientifically accurate and capture their beauty and willingness to survive in a world where many factors make It difficult to do so.
