Rough sketch vs finished illustration of Naiya’s room in
For this illustration, when I was in the designing phase, I used a 3d model to figure out the shape of the roof and windows. A bit of a distraction, I'll admit, but also helpful and really fun too!

What do caves make you feel? Do they inspire adventure or more dark and foreboding feelings?⁠

For me they're both. I love exploring caves when I've had the opportunity. Something about the immense underground spaces fascinated me.⁠

Preorders for Naiya and the Foxdragon soon!

Aru is such a fun and wonderful friend to Naiya. He's the second of my two main characters in my illustrated novel.⁠

Can you guess his favorite food?⁠

I created this piece as a celibration of friendship. Naiya & Aru completed what could be considered an impossible task & their reward is a friendship that will last a lifetime!⁠

This original watercolor has already sold, but there are prints!

This is one of the larger image spreads in the novel. Naiya and Aru are leaving the city of Ora, setting off on their quest. It's a happy moment of transition, Naiya leaving behind her old life for something new.⁠
