Goldianne and Michaelangelo’s Wedding Invitations (2023)

It was such an honor to create my friend and her fiancé's wedding invitations. I was touched at how they trusted me to create the design for their wedding invitation, despite the fact that I have never done wedding invitations before.

Roses may not be my favorite flowers, but they are really pretty.

Space Girl: Saturn (2022)

Introducing Space Girl: Saturn, the fourth girl in my Space Girls series! I loved the idea of using the planet Saturn as a hat when I sketched the concept back in 2021. Though, I was unsure I could execute it well back then. Regardless, I'm delighted it turned out well in the end!

Kalachuchi [Plumeria] (2022)

The Kalachuchi flower (also known as the Plumeria) is one of my favorite flowers growing up. I would often pass by its tree in one of my school’s walkways when I was a child.

Nature Prints: Poppies (2021)

Poppies are another favorite flower of mine. I love their red color. Also, I love that you can also eat the seeds, haha!

Nature Prints: Peonies

I used to create floral designs for wall panels and other home items in my first job. I missed making floral prints, so I decided to start making some again! I think I'll enjoy it more now since I can do them without any design restrictions

Space Girl: Nebula (2021)

I finally finished Space Girl: Nebula! She is one of the first Space Girls I drew back in college. I even started coloring the sketch I made of her. However, I wanted to give her a different and more updated look this time around.

Also, it took me longer to finish this than I anticipated, but I am glad how it turned out!

Commission for Philline Malong

My friend commissioned me to create a portrait of her back in 2017. She wanted an illustration of herself up sightseeing in the mountain.

However, I lost the original file over the years. I told my friend I'll start a new one from scratch instead of finding the old file.

“Space Girls: Shooting Star”

Shooting Star is the first in a series of astronomy-inspired drawings I plan to do. This is a redo of an illustration I made back in 2017. I wasn't satisfied with the 2017 version, mostly because I had no idea what I was doing. I'm pretty satisfied with this version now but I know I still have a lot to learn

“Wavy Hair”

The concept for “Wavy Hair” came from an old, unfinished drawing I made back in 2015. I didn’t like how I rendered the initial illustration and so I never finished it. When I was looking through my old files, I decided to finally render this illustration but with a more realistic and dreamy style.

Medium: Adobe Photoshop
