​ABOUT​​

Hello! I am a UK based Freelance Illustrator working across the publishing, editorial and advertising sectors.

My illustrations are heavily motivated by environmental and social issues, which are presented through vibrant and surreal themes. I enjoy combining surprising and playful elements to make even the most taboo subject engaging.

I follow a simple work process of mood boarding ideas, sketching and refining before finally rendering. I apply a meticulous method of mark making but allow an intuitive selection of colour to develop the final outcome. I incorporate a certain level of planning but find my most creative ideas occur through organic exploration.

My influences encompass both Illustrators and Artists including Dali, Redmar Hoekstra, Katie Jade Dobson and Simon Prades. Their combined use of surrealism, colour and subjects have helped to form my own work.
