About me

I'm a children's illustrator creating colourful, detailed and story led artwork using a traditional, hand drawn approach using watercolour and ink. My work focuses on expressive human and animal characters, imaginative environments and visual storytelling, with plenty of small details for children to discover.
I'm particularly interested in children's books and illustration projects where I can help bring characters, stories and imaginative worlds to life. I've recently completed my first illustration commission and am looking to build more professional opportunities within children's publishing and illustration.
