Fashion Illustrator/Brand Designer: Apparel, Print, Vector

Experienced. Authentic. Collaborative. Hi! I'm an illustrator and graphic designer with a track record of real commercial work across apparel, brand identity, and print design. I've designed original women's collections for boutique brands, led visual identity redesigns for a heritage workwear brand, and produced hundreds of croquis for major workwear companies. What I Do: Illustration: Logo elements · Branding icons · Fashion croquis & technical flats · Life drawings & portraits · Vector/pop · Hand-drawn · Black & white · Woodblock style · Animals & objects Graphic Design: Brand identity & logo design · All-over print & pattern design · Apparel branding · Print & layout design Apparel: Women's & men's collections · Brand refresh · Accessories AI Illustration Refinement: I redraw and refine AI-generated illustrations that aren't meeting client expectations — correcting anatomy, line quality, style consistency, and detail. What I Don't Do: I don't design AI slop. Every project starts with a genuine creative process rooted in illustration, craft, and original thinking, not a generated template unless consistency or scale requires it. That said, I often use Claude Co-Work for workflow management and am familiar with the advantages of using AI for repetitive non-creative tasks. My Process: Listen. Ask questions. Share sketches and references to align early. Execute. Revise. Deliver on time. Working With Me: I'm collaborative, communicative, and dependable. I ask the right questions upfront so we don't waste your time on the wrong direction. I've been told I'm easy to work with — and I take that seriously.
