HOWDY
I’m Kayla, an Illustrator and Designer with a passion for telling stories, creating charming characters, and building the worlds they live in!
I’m just a humble diabetic cowboy from South Texas, though I currently reside in Nevada with my husband and our two cats. I have an Associates of Arts from Northwest Vista College, as well as my BFA in Illustration from Savannah College of Art and Design.
My work history is filled with a variety of magazine and editorial projects wherein I produced graphics and illustrations for print and digital media (Study Breaks Magazine, F(r)iction Magazine). I've designed a multitude of characters and environments for various clients in the TTRPG world on a freelance basis. I've also briefly worked as a keyframe illustrator on the final season of FXX's Archer, too! Currently, I develop concepts, assets, and animations for games in the casino slots industry as a Senior Game Artist!
In my free time I LOVE playing Dungeons & Dragons and narrative, cozy video games. I've spent years running an online shop designing and producing handmade stickers, pins, and art prints, as well! I'm a trained ceramicist, collect fountain pens and ink obsessively, and am a known soup fiend.
