Happy #kidlitpostcard day! I’m an illustrator based in NYC that loves to illustrate quirky, funny stories for board and picture books. Bonus points if it features animal characters!🌟 I also aspire to be an author/illustrator and have a few stories of my own that I’m working on. If you’re an agent, art director, or author with a new project, please reach out I’d love to chat! #kidlitportfolio #kidlitartpostcard #picturebookartists #childrensbookstagram childrensbookillustrations

“Talking tulip” prompt from @kidlitart_drawing_challenge 🌷 The tulip may indeed be talking but who even knows what language it speaks?? #kidlitillustrations #kidlitillustrator #childrensbookart #whimsyillos #cuteanimalillustration

Was looking for a prompt and came across this palette challenge by @socalledkidlit 🎨 The bright red immediately made me think of strawberries so I drew a little animal friend finding the biggest, plumpest strawberry he’s ever seen! I can only assume some delicious jam is in his future #kidlitartists #kidlitillustrations #whimsyillos #childrensbookillustrations #cuteanimalart

A compilation of my 5 illustrations completed for @ourplanetweek 🌎❤️ I love doing these challenges, having a prompt helps me so much with the pressure of the blank page. I get to experiment and play and have learned so much every time. #ourplanetweek #ourplanetweek2026 #kidlitartists #kidlitillustrations #drawingchallenges

My final illustration for @ourplanetweek “Seeds Sowing” 🌱🌸 When I started this challenge I told myself if I did 1 or 2 prompts then I’d be proud of the effort and I ended up doing *all 5 prompts* so I’m officially patting myself on the back and considering this a job well done. This is some much needed self-encouragement after another week filled with rejections- but alas I’m getting the idea that failure/rejection is a much bigger part of an illustrators life than one would think 🫠 Thank you to the hosts: @zatiff @megliljenquist @asiaorlando_ @beetleinthehay @janinarossiter @caitbrennanillustration @emmalopesart @megharriet @hello.momo.illu @juditorosz.artwork @raquelrussoo @karlasandersart @lamartina.art @sarahvonrickenbach @studiolisa @tyymes #ourplanetweek2026 #opw26seeds #ourplanetweek #kidlitillustrations #letsdrawthechange

4th prompt for @ourplanetweek - “Ocean Glowing” I thought of weirdo glowing lantern fish *Quick Fact: I learned the hanging, glowing bit is called a photophore* This was a challenge for me to draw and make it well, look cute. (Google lanternfish and wowza they have some creepy faces! lol) So the fact I think this guy looks more friendly than menacing is a victory in my book!

🪁Winds blowing prompt for @ourplanetweek I remember having Kite Day in elementary school- and while I had imagined myself easy breezy like the girl in this illustration…I’m pretty sure the reality ended up in a tangled mess and needing teachers assistance 😂 Thank you to the hosts: @zatiff @megliljenquist @asiaorlando_ @beetleinthehay @janinarossiter @caitbrennanillustration @emmalopesart @megharriet @hello.momo.illu @juditorosz.artwork @raquelrussoo @karlasandersart @lamartina.art @sarahvonrickenbach @studiolisa @tyymes #ourplanetweek2026 #opw26wind #ourplanetweek #kidlitillustrators #letsdrawthechange

🐢“Rivers flowing” prompt for @ourplanetweek My first draft of this was only featuring animals interacting amongst themselves, but then I really looked at it and asked myself “how can I push this farther and make it more special?” and I knew I had to add a main character. I really love how this one came out, I think tiny turtles are just the cutest 🥹 Thank you to the hosts: @zatiff @megliljenquist @asiaorlando_ @beetleinthehay @janinarossiter @caitbrennanillustration @emmalopesart @megharriet @hello.momo.illu @juditorosz.artwork @raquelrussoo @karlasandersart @lamartina.art @sarahvonrickenbach @studiolisa @tyymes #ourplanetweek2026 #opw26rivers #ourplanetweek #kidlitillustrators #letsdrawthechange

Happy Earth Day and the start of @ourplanetweek 🌎 The first prompt is “forests growing” - My illustration is about a young adventurer and his trusted friend out to explore the beautiful forest. I wanted the feel of my illustration to be full and lush, with layers of bright colors and textures, I fought with the composition of this one for a while but ultimately am happy with it!

Is it just me or did April FLY straight by 😅 Being super productive at all times, especially with the rollercoaster of our current turbulent times, is just not sustainable or realistic for anyone so I’m doing my best to show myself kindness when I fall behind! #wheredidaprilgo #lifeofanillustrator #lifeofafreelancer
