I’m Hillary (Also known as Ree) and am a United States based illustrator. As a little girl, I always knew I wanted to be an artist, but somewhere along the way, I took a few detours. After having had a variety of job titles ranging from tour guide to bank teller to educator, I’ve come to realize I will always be an artist and illustrator first. With a love of the visual narrative and a passion for the fantastical, I now work full time making that childhood dream a reality and I am having an absolute blast.

When not making art, I can usually be found curled up with a good book, playing video games, or eating Nutella out of the jar with a spoon.

My current focus is character design and character focused concept art for stories both old and new.

Programs I use: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, & Procreate
