About

I am a full time illustrator for the children’s book market.
 
After years of working traditionally I now draw and paint on Photoshop in a way designed to produce a traditional watercolor look. 
I have illustrated many books for both the trade and educational market.
 
I did take classes at the School of Visual Arts in New York City but I am mostly self taught.
 
I began my life in art designing greeting cards and painting murals for children’s rooms. 
I still offer portraits, caricatures and pet portraits to independent clients.
 

Since 2007 I have worked as a professional illustrator when I signed on to be represented by Wendy Mays and Janice Onken from WendyLynn & Company. 

Since then I have had the privilege to illustrate many, many wonderful picture books.

My specialty is drawing and painting people and animals. As a kid I was obsessed with drawing faces of celebrities, sports figures, family members and neighbor’s pets. 

Now I am paid to do it and sometimes I still cannot believe my luck. 

I would be so happy to work on your project!

Since then I have worked on many projects for both the educational and trade market.  I have illustrated many books, including Chris P. Bacon series for Hay House Publishers.

I paint my illustrations traditionally and now, most often,digitally. Working digitally helps me to work faster while maintaining the quality product I am used to providing. I love my Mac and Wacom tablet! Deadlines are never missed now that I’ve perfected my digital illustration.
