About me
I'm a creative, working with traditional hand rendered techniques - painting murals, illustrating and working in print design. I also work on pro-bono projects, volunteer for social enterprises and causes that positively affect social and environmental change.
Projects
  • Made in Hackney Mural
    Made in Hackney MuralMade In Hackney are passionate about healthy, affordable food that is good for both people and the planet. The charity teaches vital food growing, cooking and composting skills. We offered our services, painting a mural to brighten up the outdoor space that the kitchen looks out onto. Taking on board the organisation’s founding pillars of “Local, organic, seasonal and plant based”, we helped transform this small outdoor space into a bright, fun feature wall. madeinhackney.org
