A mascot design done for quaint Waffle cafe done. The character was created to be for all age groups and also furry friends.

I love revisiting old work and giving it a fresh update. ✨
This waffle mascot was originally created for a client in 2016 and one of my favorite early freelance projects. Refined it for my portfolio!✨

Love the cute poses!

Wanted to share the second ATC I did this January. I gave some color to my OG hedgehog character, I was so happy the way she turned out! I am yet to name her.
This tiny piece was created on 2.5 x 3.5 watercolor paper.

Came across this adorable DTIYS by @iragraphics and couldn’t resist ✨
Played with light, shadow, and a touch of animation for extra drama—really happy with this one⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣✨

It happened to me and I reported it to them telling them I have proof I sketched it. They immediately removed it. Sad they are doing that.

Hello and happy #kidlitartpostcard day!

Adorable

Art of a young East asian girl wearing a yellow outfit and holding a red ribbon. She rides a red horse with flames for its mane and tail. A similar looking foal runs in the foreground. 5 other horses run in the background. The fire horses symbolize the year of the Fire Horse in the Chinese astrological calendar.

There’s something magical about developing book characters—challenging, joyful, and so rewarding.

Here’s the inspiration behind My First Pañuelo, with Sarita inspired by the author’s childhood photo.

Work in progress( 2.5” by 3.5”)… #gouacheart #kidlitart #characterdesign

Omg that’s so much snow! We didn’t get that much in Virginia but we were still mostly home for the last 2 days.

What a cutie

Whimsical illustration series showing Cody, a child, and Chip, a friendly robot, beginning a story about curiosity, exploration, and learning about the planet together.

Every character starts somewhere…
Cody & Chip began as a fun sketch for March of Robots and slowly turned into a story about curiosity, fun, and discovery.

A robot. ( Chip) 
A child. ( Cody)
A whole universe to explore. #kidlitillustration #kidlitart #gesturesketch

Yes for sure, but it’s fun kind right . I do know it will be a lot of learning. ☺️

Love this

Quote with your horn art!
