Personal Art Projects
Before getting involved in UI/UX, I was heavily involved in drawing and painting. I've completed a number of commercial and fine art courses.
My interest in hand-drawn art compelled me to learn more about transforming my skills into digital graphic and UI design.
Here are examples of my artwork. The first illustration on the left is a hand-drawn illustration composed of thousands of dots, using a method called stippling. The second illustration from the left is an illustration which won #2 in a state-wide drawing competition.
