“Do, or do not. There is no try”  Yoda

I have learnt throughout university that if you have the mindset to just try, this will hold you back from your true potential. Don’t overthink it. Be determined. Don’t try. Just do it!

Hey, I’m Steph but my friends call me G! I’m a passionate illustrator who can work with different forms of media, but favours Procreate, Photoshop and Illustrator. My goals are to become a full-time illustrator designing posters, apparel and book covers.
