AY-YO
Digital Illustrator

I began my creative and artistic explorations as a child, drawing and imagining a variety of fantastical creatures and worlds.  This artistic process and exploration has continued, in one form or another, into the present.  I hope to bring a sense of joy, wonder, and playfulness to others through the sharing of my art.

As a freelance illustrator, I've studied a variety of both traditional and digital art mediums.  I majored in Fine Art, studying within the Computer Animation & Fine Art programs while in college at SFSU.  These days the bulk of my artwork is done digitally using Procreate, Photoshop, as well as some AI assisted pieces.  At times I also like to step away from the computer and do illustrations using pen & pencil, as well as painting with acrylic, and watercolor paints.  Overall, I enjoy consistently challenging myself in new ways, so that my artistic vision, and expression may continue to evolve, as inspired from within, and without.  

​

In 2020 I began my explorations into the NFT / crypto space, as an evolving technology for commerce, to network and build community, and in regard to the new opportunities it can potentially provide digital artists and creators in general. 

 

Stay tuned, more to come!
