Illustration

My work spans editorial, publishing and cultural contexts, with a focus on character, emotion and atmosphere. I create images that carry a sense of story — whether surreal, humorous or grounded in everyday life.


I’m especially drawn to visual storytelling in children’s publishing, but also work with experimental or conceptual pieces, including those for older audiences. I enjoy interpreting abstract or layered texts, finding visual solutions through metaphor or mood.


Whether playful or serious, personal or collaborative, my illustrations aim to invite interpretation and spark imagination.
