Collette, better known as Flying Viper Illustration, is a full-time freelance fantasy illustrator with a love for dragons and a fascination for all things mythological.

“I grew up surrounded by the dramatic landscape of north Wales, and always felt most content when expressing myself through drawing monsters and dragons,” she says. “This early interest in all things fantasy sparked a passion that would lead me to pursue an artistic career.”

The artist mixes both traditional and digital techniques, working primarily in watercolour, ink and Photoshop: “I often start my artworks traditionally and go back and forth between traditional media and the computer.”
