Bio
Illustrator of beasts and letters.
Coming from a military family, I've lived in a few places in my life. The one constant throughout my childhood was my love for drawing. I believe the ever-changing landscape of cities and faces bred a curiosity and imagination in me that I carry into my work. I weave characters (typographical) and characters (monstrous) together to create emotionally driven stories.
As much as I love creating self-initiated art, I also love drawing pretty pictures for cool people. I am currently available for freelance projects! Please, don't hesitate to contact me at ahoyhoy@ocularinvasion.com
