Welcome to Leo’s Portfolio.

Hello there! My name is Leo! I am an illustrator of many mediums and I would love to work on your project. Feel free to browse my portfolio below.

Welcome in!

Let me introduce myself. My name is Leo. I was born and raised in sunny Los Angeles. I have a passion for illustrating vivid creatures and characters that educate individuals about the world around us. I developed my skills while studying at the Maryland Institute College of Art where I received a thorough education in a variety of art practices, art history, and contemporary writing. My work takes a lot of inspiration from local wildlife, music, science fiction media, and my experiences in life. I work in a variety of mediums, and I love to combine the organic elements of traditional paints with digital tools.
