Hi there! My name is Irene, and I'm an illustrator who specialises in creating art for green and social businesses. I'm passionate about using my creative skills to make a positive impact on the world and help businesses communicate their sustainability message.
Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with a variety of green and social businesses, creating illustrations that highlight their eco-friendly and socially responsible values. Whether it's handpainted watercolours for websites, creating infographics, or illustrating marketing materials digitally, my goal is to create images that inspire and educate. My art is always inclusive and it is important to me to show the world as it is in all it's beauty and diversity.
My illustrations can help businesses grab attention, simplify complex concepts, make emotional connections, and leave a lasting impression on their audience. I believe that art has the power to change the world, and I'm committed to using my talents to make a difference.
If you're looking for an illustrator who can help you communicate your sustainability message and make a positive impact on the world, I'd love to hear from you. Let's work together to create something beautiful and meaningful.

Next to illustrating, I also run my platform Makings & Musings. With Makings & Musings I teach art classes, run workshops, host a fun and inclusive creative community where people can let their creative flow flourish and I speak at events about mindfulness, creativity and art.
