About The Creative

I create digital illustrations and also like to transform them into tangible pieces such as paintings, textile art, and functional items. My artistic style is versatile because I like to experiment. At the same time, I lean towards a bold and stylised approach, using simple shapes and a minimal color palette, whilst paying attention to detail. My subject matter is mostly portraiture and the female body. I also love to create repeat patterns as a form of deep emotional catharsis. I draw inspiration from Emory Douglas, Sindiso Nyoni, and the Pop Art movement. I'm driven by my inner volition, curiosity, sense of play, and frivolous personal expression.
