- The Seven Deadly Sins
This is an illustration I did using the theme of “gluttony” from the seven deadly sins. I made the fly demon of gluttony Beelzebub into a girl and put in donuts, a favorite among girls. The girl is completely saccharine with her large bib covered in ribbons and frills, and I think the strange food surrounding her makes a nice accent.

- Zombie Nurse
This illustration combines two of my favorite themes: zombies and nurses. There are a lot of elements I like packed in, such as the sickly look of the girl, the stitching, the rose vine growing out of the rotted eye, and the blood splatters.
I wanted this illustration to be dark and cute, yet also cool looking, but how does it come across to everybody, I wonder...?

- JURASSICK GIRL
This illustration was done for a dinosaur-themed picture book, and I based this girl on a triceratops. I combined dinosaurs, which is something that boys love, with a baby, which is the ultimate kind of cute that girls love. I did something different from usual and made it so the eyes were both dinosaur-like and cute. I also made the Jurassic organisms in the background cute and super-deformed so they wouldn’t be out of place with the baby items.

- SAKURA Incident 2013
This illustration was done for the Sakura Exhibition held in LA. I created a cherry blossom-themed Japanese-style work using things like a traditional motif and some texture to give it pop. It was fun to draw the cute armor, the defeated soldiers, and the Ukiyo-e-style clouds. The title also conveys the idea that I will continue to challenge myself to draw things I’ve never drawn before.

- Zombie Sisters
I did this illustration using a limited amount of colors. I enjoyed coming up with a way to pair the logo with a simplified illustration using basic colors.
It’s common to have set limitations when doing illustration work, so I also took this as an opportunity to practice that.
