Why

Passion Project

Studbudz Cartoons

The rise in popularity of the Studbudz prompted me to draw them in a cartoon style capturing some of their funny and iconic moments from social media and streaming.

2025 WNBA Draft Orange Carpet Outfits

The 2025 WNBA Draft Class showed out on the Orange carpet. I loved how the players in attendance were able to showcase their personalities through their fashion choices that I needed to do some illustrations of their outfits.

Unrivaled Team Illustrations

For the inaugural season of the Unrivaled Basketball League, I wanted to illustrate each team. I included team color schemes and corresponding backgrounds/details.

I also included hand-drawn type and kept the layouts consistent throughout each piece.
