I’m an illustrator and artist who has been working professionally since graduating from Liverpool John Moores University in 2004. Originally from North Yorkshire, I spent many years living and working in East London before moving to Falmouth, Cornwall, where I now live with my family and two cats.
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with clients around the world, working across fashion, editorial, publishing and creative projects, as well as exhibiting my work. My practice is rooted in a love of experimentation, and I’m always exploring new ways to bring drawings and paintings to life.
I work across painting, printmaking, collage and mixed media, often combining delicate line, expressive mark making and layers of texture. I’m particularly interested in the beauty of imperfection and the character that comes from working by hand.
Living by the coast has become an important part of my creative life. I sea swim most days and love capturing fleeting moments in my sketchbook — from coastal landscapes and passing figures to small details, colours and marks that catch my eye. These observations often find their way into my illustration work.
My style is handmade, delicate and textural, with an emphasis on line, colour and the spontaneous qualities of drawing. I’m happiest when experimenting, collecting visual ideas and allowing the process itself to shape the work.
