   The NaturalBorn Illustrated project is a series of editorial style illustrations. Each illustration represents a concept or style that I am continually building on. This series is inspired by major illustrated publishing companies such as The New Yorker, MAD Magazines, and Juxtapoz Magazines but from my own unique perspective that gives a predominant voice to black culture and narratives.

​

Process

   I hand draw these original illustrations in my sketchbook, then scan, clean up and modify them using Photoshop or Illustrator. Occasionally I use these original illustrations to create looping animations.
