Hello there!
My name is Kesler Lilly and I'm an aspiring graphic designer and illustrator from coastal North Carolina. I began drawing digitally in 2015 when I was gifted my first drawing tablet for my birthday. Little did I know that it would be the spark that ignited a creative fire within me that has now been burning for ten years and counting.
I received my Associate in Fine Arts degree from Carteret Community College in December 2023. As of 2025, I am working towards my Bachelor's Degree in Studio Art at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. I also intern with the UNCW Ice Hockey team as a graphic designer.
While digital art is my primary medium, I also love partaking in digital photography and creating traditional art. Outside of college, I like to draw digitally for myself and my friends, play video games, and watch a lot of sports. Primarily hockey!
Thank you for checking out my work!
