Emmanuel is ready for their next project!

I illustrate and write children's books that build confidence, spark imagination, and make learning feel like an adventure.
My work lives in two styles: 3D illustration (soft, rounded, Pixar-adjacent) and digital illustration (colorful, expressive, hand-drawn feel). Every project starts with one question: what do we want kids to feel when they turn the page?
I handle both words and visuals. From picture books to book covers to full character design, I can take a story from concept to print-ready art, all from a single creative perspective.
I specialize in:
- Full picture book illustration (12 to 32 pages)
- Children's book cover design for Amazon KDP and print
- 3D character design with multiple poses and expressions
- Children's story writing and narrative development
Tools I work with: Blender, Cinema 4D, Procreate, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop.
Whether you're a self-publishing author, a publisher building a series, or a parent with a story idea, I can take it from concept to finished art. Message me to scope your project.
