Character Illustration for Brands & Fan Art
I turn stories and brands into colorful, character-driven illustrations. From Netflix campaigns to nostalgic fan art, let's bring your creative vision to life.

About Brand Collaborations & Fan Art
When I work on a brand commission or fan art, I don’t just draw characters; I focus on the storytelling. I start with rough sketches to get the mood right, then build layers of color and light to match that dreamy, Disney-inspired aesthetic. Whether you need a unique mascot for your campaign or a stylized portrait of your favorite characters, we’ll iterate together until the illustration feels just right.
My freelance journey started with a lot of trial and error, but working with brands like Netflix and Red Bull taught me how to blend commercial needs with my personal art style. If you are a brand looking for a mascot or a creative campaign visual, I treat your project with the same focus on character emotion that I put into my personal art.
How I approach a project
- The Brief: We chat about your idea, the mood, and the style you're looking for.
- Rough Sketches: I send over the initial pencil work so we can nail the composition and posing.
- Refinement: I add color and lighting, then send it for feedback to ensure the character expressions hit the right note.
- Final Delivery: You get high-res files ready for social media, branding, or print.
Beyond the Brand
I treat my fan art like professional studies. When I recreate a movie scene or draw a character inspired by a brand like Paperboat, I'm analyzing the lighting, fabric textures, and micro-expressions. It's a great way for me to experiment with new techniques, which means I’m always evolving my style. If you have a specific character design in mind—whether it's an OC (Original Character), a zodiac sign concept, or a reimagined film character—I’m always game to draw it.
