Selected illustrations 2024

In 2024, I dove into a painful journey: picking up drawing again after almost 7 years. Back in 2017, I switched to development and completely drifted away from illustration. Coming back was a slow, step-by-step process, hating every line until I started finding my way. The result of studying others’ work, absorbing it, and merging it with my own style are these illustrations.

Here are a few of them, where I realized that early sketches can be just as powerful as the final digital pieces. This year, my trusty little iPad Pro and the magic of Procreate have made me so happy.

Feel free to check out the full journey on my Behance, or come hang out with me on Instagram to see the day-to-day!
