Deliverables

  • Series of digital illustrations

The Challenge

Establish a distinct, recognizable illustration style that can support both original concepts and familiar characters, while remaining flexible across formats and applications.

Approach

Built the style around dynamic compositions, bright color blocks, and minimal, high-impact linework.

Applied this visual language consistently across both fan art and original characters to create a cohesive and recognizable body of work.

The Result

Established a clear, recognizable illustration style associated with my work, with pieces consistently performing well at conventions and online and translating effectively into prints and greeting cards.
