Illustration

I’m a hand-drawn illustrator who likes to wander a bit. My work shifts between soft and whimsical, cozy and curious, sometimes tidy and sometimes a little loose around the edges. I care a lot about line, texture, and small details—the kind you might not notice right away, but that add warmth and personality once you do.

Most of my illustrations start as sketches: little ideas, shapes, or characters that want to exist. Some stay as single images, while others grow into collections, patterns, or stitched designs later on. I enjoy letting work evolve naturally, following what feels interesting rather than locking myself into one look or lane.

You’ll see a lot of gentle themes woven through my work—nature-inspired elements, playful motifs, soft humor, and a sense of coziness. I’m drawn to illustrations that feel friendly and inviting, like they’re happy to keep you company for a while. Pieces that feel hand-made, not over-polished, and a little bit alive.

Illustration is the starting point for almost everything I make. Many of the pieces here eventually find their way into surface designs or fiber art, especially cross-stitch. I love watching drawings slow down and transform—turning into repeating patterns, stitchable charts, or tactile pieces that take time to make.

Below is a small collection of my illustration work, including personal projects and design-forward pieces. If you’re curious about licensing, collaborations, or illustration commissions, you can find more information over on the Work With Me page.
