ANIMAL ILLUSTRATIONS

Illustration is a newer skill for me, one I’ve been developing in both Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. As I explore digital illustration more deeply, I’m enjoying the challenge of balancing anatomical accuracy with personality in each drawing.

One of the privilleges of working at an aquarium is that I have the opportunity to learn about animals from across the globe. Each drawing is a chance to experiment with form, texture, and expression, and it’s exciting to see how my style continues to evolve. Color and lighting are areas I’m still actively learning, but I’m motivated by the process and excited to keep learning and growing as an illustrator.
