Concept Art

ASTRO

Astro is a black hole-inspired creature that towers over humans and gives off a cosmic aura. In my process of creating him, I wanted to make a character that is monstrous yet humane. He embodies space and the scary unknowns that lie in it.

Thyme

Thyme is a bonsai tree-inspired earth spirit who roams the earth ever so often. Similar to the previous artwork, my interest in Asian culture gave me the idea to create something organic yet new.

Emotions

A huge part of concept art is being able to display different emotions. Using myself as the reference allowed me to tap into emotions I rarely draw and to bring out different sides of me.

Lunar 1.0

Lunar 1.0 is a robot inspired by Su Song and the Mechanical Clock Tower. My interest in Asian cultures led me to research this ancient invention and create something outside my comfort zone.

Aurum

The Aurum is a chariot hybrid of cyberpunk and Roman influence. When in creation, the motivation was to make something powerful yet stunning to the eye.

Zhavia

Zhavia is a water goddess inspired by the tides themselves. She is the embodiment of the ocean's rage. Her character is meant to be powerful and unforgiving.

Helping Hand (1/3)

This artwork is part of a three-piece series that explores fictional storytelling. Each piece delves into a different aspect of the story of helping others. It offers a common perspective in a unique, visual way. In this scene, the witch stumbles upon the fire sprites. It is unknown what they are running from.

Pretty Ugly

Pretty Ugly is an art piece that consists of a rotting corpse in a tub of acid surrounded by molding bricks. I aimed to develop a piece that embodied contrasting visual elements—attractive and unsettling.

The Kauris is a creature hybrid of an angler fish, a panther, and a deer. I intended to create a creature that can live on land and sea.

Enchanted Dress

This art piece is a speed-drawn dress. Inspired by a McGuffin, this dress drives a story filled with ballerinas. Their goal is to be the best dancer in order to achieve this gown.
