A cute children's book illustration of a child in a divers suite. He is in the middle of the composition. Around the edge of the illustrations are friendly looking and cute sharks and other fish, all looking towards the kid. At the bottom of the picture you can see coral and seeweed. Around Lex are underwater bubbles. Above the divers head is a handwritten font saying "Lex the shark nerd"

A cute children's book illustration of a fairy sitting among an arrangement of plants and flowers. There are dandelions in the background and the foreground features a lot of Niembergia flowers or cup flowers. The fairy is dressed in a red and orange dress and has pink wings. She is holding one of the flowers like a cup. On the left hand side you can see a recipe for a drink called "Niembergia Nectar"

This is a non-fiction page design for the online course "Portfolio Bootcamp 2022" by Make Art That Sells. The assignment had us pick out a flower that started with the third letter of our name and to then make a non-fiction spread out of it. Mine had to start with an "N", so I picked "Niembergia". I did not find a lot of info about it other than that it is also called "cup flower", which inspired me to create a page for a children's recipe book.

A cute childrens book illustration of parents and children of different ethnicitys celebrating creativity in a colorful environment.

This is a non-fiction page design for the online course "Portfolio Bootcamp 2022" by Make Art That Sells. The assignment had us imagine how the world would be if creativity was a mandatory, several days a week class and creative jobs would be treated like tech/ finance/ etc. I chose the angle of support by society and parents that often lacks if it comes to these types of jobs.

A cute children's illustration of a bird with a hat holding a four leaved clover.

A cute illustrated character sheet depicting a girl with an anthropomorphic balloon. The girl has long purple-blue curly hair, a darker blue helmet with bug antennas. She is wearing a checkered yellow dress with a maroon jacket over top and maroon boots. She has a small plaster on her right knee. The balloon has the form of a yellow star and wears a small sailor hat. The illustration depicts the two in different situations. Bob being carried by the wind. Bob slipping out of Bugs hand and gliding away from her while she is reaching out for him. Bug running along with Bob and Bob having fun. Bug sitting on the floor and reading from a book to Bob. Bug leaning on a railing and watching the sky, while Bob is tied to the railing and is also watching the sky.

This is a poses sheet of the main characters of the children's book script "Bob" written by Zoë Tucker for the online course "Illustrating Children’s Books 2020" (by Make Art That Sells). I illustrated the two main characters Bug and her balloon Bob. I really love the two together, but I especially have a soft spot for Bug. She lives alone with Bob in a lighthouse, so I made her rather tough because how else does she survive on her own?
