Passionate freelance illustrator specializing in environmental art for animation, games, and children's books.

Meet The Artist

Hello! I am a Filipino American illustrator based in Massachusetts. As a freelance illustrator, I specialize in creating vibrant backgrounds in a fantasy style for animation and games. I also enjoy illustrating for children's books! My journey began at a young age, in which many East Asian cultures inspired the doodles and illustrations I produced. I take inspiration from many popular animation styles like Studio Ghibli. Im well adept in Procreate, Photoshop, and Poster Color/Gouache. I also have spent much of my time refining my skills to create whimsical narratives and environments.
