IllustrationConcept Art/ Design

I've been drawing since I was young. My mum decided I needed to be quieter so she sent me to art classes, where I became mildly obsessed with drawing birds. I only started taking art more seriously when I was 19, where I learnt to draw animals from encyclopedias and merging them into weird critters. I had been drawing traditionally before this, finding out that graphic tablets existed was like receiving fire from the gods. So since then, I've been working digitally. My illustration style has been influenced by watercolour paintings, a little from animal medical illustrations and my taste in pastel and bright colours.
