Hello there!

 Hello! My name is Elise! (she/her)

I have a Bachelor's in Art + Design from Towson University and a Masters in Publishing from Edinburgh Napier University. I am an Illustrator with an interest in kidlit and children's art. I enjoy hiking and running a lot. I am familiar with Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator to work and use Procreate to do a lot of digital drawings. I am currently learning Irish and (relearning) German and I've started working on Greek and Italian.

My favorite Irish word is Sionnach, it means Fox! My favorite German word is Igel, it means Hedgehog! I don't have a favorite Greek or Italian word yet but I'll get back to you when I do. I love the Percy Jackson, Lockwood & Co, and Nancy Drew. My favorite food is any sort of pasta, I can't decide (but classic spaghetti is always a go to)! I love to bake bread. I can play the guitar, but I can only play the same two country songs over and over.

I am currently closed to commissions and/or full-time design and illustration work. I am, however, open to small part-time work.
