Editorial Illustration Series, Part II
This piece is part of a four-piece editorial illustration series inspired by New York and its iconic visual language. I wanted it to feel bold, simple, and graphic, with strong shapes, architectural detail, and a limited colour palette. It shows a more stylised side of my work and my love for creating illustrations that feel modern, clear, and memorable.

Auckland, New ZealandI’m an Auckland-based illustrator, fashion illustrator, portrait artist, and surface designer with a love for creating artwork that feels personal, stylish, and full of character. I create portraits, custom illustrations, and fashion and editorial-inspired pieces, with a strong eye for detail and composition. Sketching and drawing are a big part of my creative process, and I love bringing ideas to life in a way that feels expressive, elegant and meaningful.
