Editorial work
Book covers
Book covers for a dystopian novel, a crime novel and a writers guide, the illustrations were painted digitally using Adobe Photoshop and the layout was created in Adobe InDesign. The images on the right of two of the books show promotional banners.
Another cover for a novel which was painted traditionally using watercolours. The other images are illustrations inside of the book showing the protagonist's hands at different ages in her life and three string figures.
Architectural illustrations
In 2017 I worked on several architectural illustrations for a real estate agency.
Landscapes
In 2018 I worked on several landscape illustrations for a research company.
Book illustration
In 2016 I illustrated the famous novel War Horse which was written by Michael Morpurgo. The illustrations are drawn from the horses' perspective. I played with reflection in a river and in a rain puddle to show the main characters together. The illustration on the right shows a page of a sketchbook in which the horse's glory has been studied. The drawings were created traditionally with pencil on paper. I decided to have them monochrome to reflect the mood and time in which the story took place.
