The Illustration. The Sketch
One thing I love about illustration? The freedom. 🎨
I can take an idea and tell the story however I want through shapes, composition, details, and little unexpected elements.
No flows to account for. No edge cases to solve. Just creativity and finding the best way to bring an idea to life.
And that’s exactly what I had fun exploring with this piece.
Peep the pattern on the character cloth🔥
Nice
Thank you
Thanks!
That green outfit and the long shadow are such a good combination.

Is sketching part of your creative workflow or we've forgotten what it feels to be human?
Depending on the projec's scope, I normally like to explore my ideas on paper before I come up with the best solution.
And no, they're not perfect.
They are rough and messy, my goal is so...
It used to be but now i try to create and start digitally as my drawing sucks so i feel like it saves my time somehow!
Nice to see the feature section taking shape. Curious how it will connect to the rest of the template.

Theory was designed for a creative studio that needed something bold and editorial without losing clarity or usability.
The part I loved most was figuring out how to make the site feel visually expressive while still giving the portfolio work room to breathe. Lots of strong type, intentional movement, and little custom details throughout.
Designed + developed in Squarespace 7.1 with custom CSS and JavaScript.
The oversized “recent work” type over the project imagery is a lovely touch. Gives the portfolio a real editorial feel.
