About me
Katie has over four years of experience as a freelance illustrator, providing creative services and support for a variety of clients. With a master’s degree in Research (in the Arts), and a bachelor’s degree in Illustration, Katie is capable of creating whimsical and original concepts, and improving the quality of a piece of work to increase audience interest. She is continuously searching for new topics and stories to illustrate, with a belief that creative industries and practices play a much larger part in our society, particularly on our psychological wellbeing.

    "Escape" - an editorial piece exploring the mental health crisis during COVID-19 pandemicThis is an exploratory piece looking at how our gardens and nature in general were a healing factor for many of us during the COVID-19 pandemic - the mental health crisis that ensued during this difficult time impacted us all, and many turned to the great outdoors to 'let off steam' and take a break from the confines of national/global lockdowns.

  • "She Persisted" - an editorial piece on protesting and feminism
    "She Persisted" - an editorial piece on protesting and feminismAn editorial piece exploring the solidarity we have when fighting for a cause. While each person may have a more significant cause to fight for, there is still support from people from all walks of life fighting along side them. The women in this piece all wear suits of armour to show how they are prepared for a fight, and that they've been fighting for quite some time. The young girl in the centre wearing her own makeshift armour (cardboard box) as a sign that she is new to the battlefield.

    Graduating Class of 2020An editorial GIF piece highlighting the anti-climax of graduating this year. Instead of a large festive event surrounding by friends and family, the graduating class of 2020 has instead been put on hold until further notice. A rather somber wrap up to three (or more) years of hard work.
