KATE HALLEN: DIGITAL ILLUSTRATOR
DIGITAL COMMISSION INFORMATION & INTRODUCTION
Hello! Through this page you are able to choose and order a custom commission. I have been digitally illustrating since 2008 - my tools of choice are a Wacom Cintiq 22HD and Adobe photoshop, however more commonly, will use an ipad pro and apple pencil within the procreate platform.
I adore drawing creatures, animals and atmospheres, no doubt inspired by a smorgasbord of Disney content at an impressionable age. Within this commission service are two branch options - something within The Moodpie Universe, which has a specific style guide and rules applied, or something external to that within my own style.
