Illustration for People Who Feel at Home Outside

Mountains, ocean, forest or the open road in between. My illustrations are shaped by a life of movement, exploration, and time spent in wild places.

I work with clothing brands, festivals, outdoor businesses and independent projects, creating illustration for everything from single apparel graphics to full illustration-led visual systems.

Because illustration can play different roles depending on the project, I usually work in one of the two ways below.

Single illustrations

Standalone illustration work for t-shirts and apparel, posters and prints, merch graphics, and one-off brand elements.

This option is best when you need a single contained piece with a clear purpose.

Illustration Systems & large scale projects

For festivals, outdoor events, and brands where illustration becomes the visual backbone of the project rather than just a single asset.

This kind of work usually includes:

– A clear illustration direction
– A set of illustrations that sit together as one visual world
– Rollout across posters, merch, signage, stages, socials and digital
– Artwork designed to hold together across different spaces and scales
– Visuals that help bring spaces to life and set the tone before people even arrive

The aim is to create work that people can feel and experience, building atmosphere, anticipation, and a sense of place long before they step into it.

Every project is different, so this work is usually scoped and priced as a full system rather than individual pieces.

If you’re looking to build an illustration-led visual world for a festival, event or larger campaign, get in touch and we’ll talk it through.

Bringing the spirit of the outdoors to design

My work is inspired by what i experience outside; like surfing, skating, skiing and time spent in wild places. It’s less about what things look like and more about what they feel like in the moment. Emotion, atmosphere, movement, noise, silence, all of it. I’m not just drawing places, I’m drawing how those experiences feel.
