About me

I'm a South London based illustrator specialising in design for homeware, paper goods, digital illustration and editorial. Brought up partly in London, and partly in Somerset, I'm inspired by nature found in an urban setting. Combining bold colour and playful composition, I aims to use my artwork as a medium to bring the outside in and capture happy memories of days spent out in the London wilderness and beyond. I have collaborated on projects with the likes of Pier Productions Ltd and Farming the Future UK. As well as numerous graphic design projects for independent businesses, including event posters, logos, product packaging and more. I trained at London College of Communication where I discovered my passion for the world of print and surface design. Since graduating I have worked in a number of creative roles in the industry, as an employee and a freelance designer, as well as creating my own homeware brand. My illustrated homeware is inspired by London’s parks and green spaces and celebrates the beauty of every day life in the city. If you’d like to collaborate on a project, or have any questions about a commission, please feel free to get in touch!
