About me
Amy Grimes is a London based illustrator who graduated from Camberwell College of Art in 2014 with a first in Illustration. Particularly inspired by nature and the natural patterns found there, Amy’s bright and bold illustrations, feature botanical motifs and leafy landscapes. Amy’s work is mainly created digitally, using a variety of hand-painted textures, which are scanned and assembled in Photoshop into digital collages. Since graduating Amy has worked for clients including Quarto, White Lion Publishing, Scribbler, UK Greetings and Papier. As well as working on design and publishing commissions, Amy has also set up an illustrated brand selling prints, pin badges, textiles and stationery under the name of Hello Grimes.

    For emerging artists, the transition from art school to the commercial world can be a daunting process. The Clyde & Co Art Award, now in its sixth year, continues to nurture and encourage emerging talent in the visual arts by supporting art graduates in their professional development and paying them fairly to show their work – both vital elements to enable them to sustain their practice.
