What I do
Illustrating mainly (but not exclusively) within the fantasy RPG genre, I produce custom digital illustrations for personal or commercial use.
As a client, you tell me exactly what you want me to draw and I will do my best to bring your ideas to life. I make sure to chat with clients about their project first to establish parameters, and check in at specified stages of the illustrative process (from initial sketch, to line art, to coloring and shading) to ensure that I’m capturing your vision. I can create drawings of individual characters, groups, design non-player characters (NPCs), monsters, villains, landscapes, objects, and more. Feel free to share your vision with me!
Do you have a favorite character you want to see “in the flesh”? Or maybe you’ve written a campaign and need artwork to match your story, or you’re looking to grab something customized and fresh for your website/publication? Feel free to get in touch with me by contacting me! For a breakdown of my Rates and Licensing agreement, click here.
In pricing my commissions, I differentiate between non-exclusive-use and exclusive-use. I retain copyright over all illustrations I make – how you intend to use my art should be part of our conversation.
Where to find my work
TeePublic
My TeePublic designs typically combine fantasy themes with pop culture. Designs are available on t-shirts, mugs, pillows, you name it! You can also order one of my designs as a print for some good old fashioned wall art.
DriveThruRPG
For publishers, you can buy one of my many stock art pieces which comes with a commercial license, available on Drive-Thru RPG.
If you have or are considering purchasing stock art for publication, be sure to read my terms of service.
Roll20
I have recently begun selling some of my art as virtual tokens on the Roll20 market place.
About me
I’m a freelance artist based in Toronto (Ontario, Canada). I started drawing in grade school, and have basically not stopped since.
The start of my then hobby, now passion, was highly influenced by my love of cartoons and comics. My love of the fantasy genre led me to explore Dungeons & Dragons in 2008. In 2010, I took up Dungeon Mastering the “Keep on the Shadowfell” (D&D 4e) campaign setting for a group of eleven friends from university. I began drawing my friends’ characters in 2016, and progressed to doing it for others as well. Since 2018, I have moved to full time freelancing, licensing and making my illustrations available to the wide range of commercial publishers and creators in the TTRPG space.
While my current focus is the fantasy genre, I have also produced work in the genres of horror, sci-fi, cyber- and steampunk. If there’s something specific you’d like but aren’t sure if I’d be capable/up for it, don’t hesitate to ask me.
