A watercolour painting of a pitcher plant (Nepenthes chaniana) I've just completed. I always include the dead and dying leaves because, as every natural history illustrator knows, nothing brings life to the page like death. A lot of love went into this one - hope you like it x

some people were asking about the process for these and it’s actually pretty simple! 1. make the object out of playdoh and take a photo 2. cut out in photoshop 3. add a threshold 4. recolor manually (then add textures/final touches and adjustments!) :)
and while it’s still #portfolioday here’s a few play doh illustrations i’ve made this year :)

I will post a more in-depth doc tomorrow for screen readers as well. If anyone is curious about the work situation, I recently wrote about it on Redd!t and have been following their advice. I have to be careful about the information I share for legal reasons.
