My work has always been pretty immersed in the world of books. For me, the key is capturing the mood, pacing, and atmosphere of a book. These elements guide me as I read, helping me envision the kind of imagery that best fits the narrative. I try to work as intuitively as I can, focusing on how a book feels rather than aiming for a specific look. I’m drawn to using form, color, and typography that naturally pull the viewer in.
