Digital artwork

This section showcases my digital art portfolio, featuring illustrations created with various digital tools and techniques. I work primarily with Krita and Procreate, exploring different styles from character art to abstract designs.

My digital art journey has been closely tied to my work on charity zine projects, where I've had the opportunity to both create artwork and guide other artists through the production process.

Tools and process

I primarily use Krita for desktop work and Procreate on iPad for mobile sketching and painting. Each tool offers unique advantages depending on the project requirements.

For vector work and graphic design elements, I switch between Adobe Illustrator and Inkscape, choosing based on the specific needs of the project.

Not all of it is digital. A good amount of the character work started as copic marker or coloured pencil in a sketchbook, and a run of character portraits was painted in acrylic on sliced wood rounds.
