Illustration

Order // Translation // Flow

My practice is grounded in structure. I build design grids to help organize my process, and the work begins with a concept or theme that evolves through disciplined exploration. Portraits of people and animals have always been a thread, but recently, I’ve been exploring the grid itself as both framework and subject.

Here’s a selection of personal and client illustrations. These examples reflect the same principles that guide my design and strategy work: Rigor, consistency, and the freedom that comes from discipline.
