ABOUT

Howdy! I'm Erin, an illustrator and animator working out of Baltimore Maryland! I specialize in 2D, stylized work, but I also find that I'm a pretty versatile artist and can work in any style. Some of my biggest artistic inspirations have been Samurai Champloo, Tatami Galaxy, Snotgirl, and Scott Pilgrim. My main goal in working in this field is to tell a story that will resonate with others and make them laugh and smile.
