Comics & Illustrations

I believe in the importance of the arts and enjoy drawing and illustrating in my free time. I have also taught primary and secondary school level art part-time for several years. Here are some of my personal illustration projects.

A comic about a deaf and blind girl who ventures out of her isolated, uncharted village to seek a cure for her disability in a futuristic city. Fida and her newfound friends find the cure she needs -- a cybernetic implant -- but things go awry as Fida starts acting strangely.

Robot Illustrations

I enjoy the juxtaposition of the robotic hardware with what we often attempt to imbue into our engineering and digital creations -- an imitation of the human spirit. A future with humanoid / human-like robots in our daily lives isn’t too far off, and it reminds me that we have a responsibility to design ethical products with humankind in mind.

A person in a cap rides a four-legged animal which resembles an ox but has a robotic head.
A one-eyed robot looks out of a train window pensively.
A robot sitting alone on a rock projects a beam of light out from its head, looking at something we can't see.
