A little reintroduction as I’ve had some new followers over Xmas 👋 (also my application to be ur seaside comfort creator who also likes to draw!) 🌊
Alongside being an illustration artist, I love making pottery, creating printed goods for my shop, drinking good coffee and strolling about Brighton! One of my goals for this year is to put my work out there more and share a bit more of my process and who I am!
I also teach part-time on the online BA in illustration at Falmouth and work from a wonderful shared studio in the @phoenix_artspace called @luckyfrogstudio ❤️
Thanks for following along! Feel free to drop a question or just say hi below 👇

Hello! Im back and ready to get started on making and creating for 2025 🎉
On that note, last week I was reflecting on 2024 and decided I wanted to share some illustration work I made and loved that didn’t quite make it into the real world…
SO! Here’s a non-fic book sample I made in the summer of last year that was sadly cancelled 💔 I’d love to work on more picture books this year so please get in contact AD’s if you think my work my suit one of your projects (I’ve got a cute portfolio of book work I can’t share openly that I’d love to send ya) 📚 📖 ✏️

Oh my! After a year and over 40 Illustrations, my stint for working with @sainsburysmag is sadly over 😢
I thought I'd share some of my favourite living well covers we worked on over the last year and give a big thank you to my lovely art directors over @sevenc3 💖

I had a lovely time drawing live portraits last week @brightonseo for Link Building HQ! ✍️ 🏙️
In a big sea of AI chats, was nice to hear how much everyone valued and loved seeing a real human artist there and getting themselves an illustrated portrait to take home!

We’ve recently been working on a lovely collaboration with illustrator Connie Noble @consbea who approached us with a vision to refresh and evolve our visual identity....and it felt like exactly the right moment to say yes.
As The Maker’s Fair continues to grow, we wanted our visuals to better reflect the energy, quality, and character of the makers we work with. Connie has reworked our brand colours to create something more vibrant, flexible, and full of life, giving us far more mileage across everything we do.
A big part of the process has been thinking about how our visuals can expand with us. Connie has created a beautiful new illustrated map that highlights our venues, with the potential to grow as we do, marking each place we land while leaving space for what’s to come.
Alongside this, we now have a vibrant collection of colourful, adaptable assets that we can use across digital and print, making it easier to keep things cohesive while still playful and dynamic.
Connie has been awesome to work with. Very happy with the results. Thank you Connie. ❤️
More of the design assets made for @themakersfair ! Really nice flexing my designer muscle alongside my illustration job 💪
The little logo stickers are all inspired by the natural surroundings of Brighton and the exhibitors who work a lot with natural elements. The cut out shapes for photos are also inspired by the local rolling downs and hills in Sussex! 🌿🦋🐞⛰️
If you’d like to work together on some branding, please get in touch as this was super fun to create!

Really delighted to share this super fun collaboration with @themakersfair ! Me and Lauren who runs TMF have been cooking up this rebrand for a little while and I’m so excited to share the first batch of work created together!
More to come this week but first here’s the illustrated venue map and some social media assets I illustrated! 🗺️ 🌿 🌷
