Illustrator & Artist
About Me
I live in London and work as a freelance illustrator and artist. I love to paint and draw and I like my work to be rich and colourful and for the images to tell a story.
I studied Animation at The Royal College of Art and worked in the animation industry on short films and commercials before focusing more on my illustration work after the birth of my first child. My work has included commissions for educational books, posters, phonics cards, advertising, greetings cards, activity books, and a collection of paintings for a childrens hospital ward. My clients ave included Scholastic, Rising stars, Macmillan, Pearsons, and HarperCollins
I recently opened an Etsy shop selling prints of my work. i have produced a new body of work including alphabet prints and fairytale prints specifically for this market
Markets
Stratford Market
I sell my work at markets in South and East London including Greenwich, Beckenham and Stratford. Alongside original paintings I also sell prints, t shirts, and cards. It is good to get instant feedback on work and I enjoy the atmosphere of the markets.
