hey, I’m deua

I’m a freelance creative specialised in bespoke illustration and branding.

Why do i do this?

Art for me is something I’m extremely passionate about. It’s a personal outlet for me that over time has developed into a skill I use to bring other peoples ideas to life.

As my passion grew for art I found myself obsessed with branding, learning how brands curate all the variables to portray themselves effectively was fascinating to me. How they look, what they value, what their mission is, how they make you feel, the list continues.. As this obsession snowballed I became more and more drawn to graphic design, learning to piece the processes together and solve specific problems with compositions. But becoming a “graphic designer” wasn’t the sole objective.

Unique ideas and illustration is by far my strongest skill, I studied graphic design with the intention to learn and apply effective elements, systems and various other techniques to my illustrations. this led me to take on Illustrative Brand Design: a mix that merges my skillset in freehand illustration and graphic design, allowing me to produce work that is true to my style and functions effectively in real world application.

I intend to express my creativity by utilising that squishy thing in our heads called a BRAIN and those funny things on the end of our arms called HANDS. Not a prompt that generates an insignificant image. Keeping the “human’ness” in it all and pushing my creativity is what i’m here for.
