About Allard

Digital Artist • Illustrator • Creative Explorer

hey there!

I’m Allard Lavaritte — a digital illustrator, developer, gymrat, and triathlete who believes creativity and discipline go hand in hand. I bring bold, character-driven stories to life through stylized illustration, cinematic compositions, and immersive world-building. Whether I’m sketching original characters, building sleek websites, or chasing my next fitness milestone, I’m always learning, evolving, and sharing what I know. This space is where art meets mindset — and you’re invited to explore it all.

My Art Style

Cinematic. Emotional. Story-first.
My work often explores contrast—between light and shadow, strength and vulnerability, chaos and calm. I gravitate toward stylized anatomy, bold color palettes, and visual storytelling that hints at a deeper lore.

You’ll usually find:

  • Characters caught in epic moments
  • Original concepts like Blueflame, the 100-Man Slayer
  • Mood-heavy environments and scenes
  • Digital tools like Procreate, Photoshop, and Blender

My Creative Journey

I didn’t go to art school—and that’s why I build everything I wish I had when I started. I’ve worn many hats: UI/UX designer, email marketer, video editor, and even IT instructor. But my heart has always pulled me back to drawing.

Now, I use that experience to help other beginners grow—from learning how to draw from scratch to building the discipline to improve over time.

I believe:

  • You don’t need talent—you need tools, time, and mindset.
  • You don’t need permission to call yourself an artist.
  • You can tell epic stories, one sketch at a time.
