BA (Hons) Illustration First Class HonoursUniversity of Derby
- Derby, United Kingdom
During my time at university we were encouraged to become an innovative, unique, diverse, and professionally distinctive illustrator.
Working in a dedicated visual communication studio, cross discipline networking was encouraged and able to thrive.
Through various live-briefs we were also gifted with the ability to dive into the creative industry from the very beginning through to the end of the course.
Over 3 years of study I developed a confidence to re-imagine and challenge the traditional interpretations of a brief and formed my own unique style that can grow and adapt through time as I do.
