covers & interior illustrations (left, Forest Angel for Candlelight; right, Nest for Token)
some of my favorite illustration work from the past few years has been for TTRPGs with Gabriel Robinson - Candlelight in 2020 was really my first foray back into ink painting after a long time, & now i can’t get enough of it. very excited for an upcoming project with Gabriel that we can’t quite talk about yet, but i can promise more of this mood.
still one of my favorite portraits i’ve ever done! a friend & former student of mine who is now an incredible fashion designer. from her Design Museum profile:
Today, Noèl is a Mexico City-based artist interested in shifting perceptions of intimacy and revitalizing a sense of fantasy through the dissection of queer and Afro-Latinx identity through clothing construction, mixed media installations, fiber practices, and video. Her work centers the power of physical touch and moves through a romanticized reality of the discarded. She poeticizes the relationships of her Dominican elders and her own stories of existing as a queer, fat, femme, racially ambiguous, trans person.
she’s currently raising money to build a foundation for her clothing brand & you can help out here!
