hey there, what's up?
I’m an artist, illustrator, and designer who blends whimsy with grit.
I create characters that look playful at first glance but carry the marks of real life — patched-up, scraped, imperfect, and proud of it.
My work challenges the polished, feel-good image we’re often shown and brings something raw, honest, and human to the surface.
Alongside these characters, I design patterns that feel fluid and intimate, revealing a softer, more reflective side.
Together, my styles create a visual world that balances hard and soft, rough and tender — always inviting people to look deeper.
