I am a freelance illustrator working both in traditional pen, ink and gouache, and digitally. My favourite subjects to draw are people and dogs, though I also really enjoy illustrating pubs, universities and homes.
In 2016, I graduated with an MA in Children’s Book Illustration at Anglia Ruskin University. I published my first book Monty and Milo with Child’s Play, which is available in bookstores and online. I have also illustrated books for Macmillan, Chicken House, and Child’s Play International.
After years of moving between the States and the UK, I have settled in Cambridge. Cambridge proves to be an inspirational place to live with its buildings, green spaces, history and interesting inhabitants. My art is usually inspired by places that I love, where I often sit on the off-chance that I can capture moments of contentment (and the occasional mishap).
My illustrations are sold as cards, prints, minis and originals online and at various events, including Cambridge Open Studios. I am also available to work on individual commissions—be it a wedding, a house, or a favourite place—as well as with independent businesses to design images for their social media, sales, greeting cards, and more. By working closely with clients, I aim to create pieces that are meaningful and which will have lasting appreciation.
When not drawing, I enjoys long walks in the countryside, working in independent coffee shops, and standing at the front of gigs while singing along to all the wrong words.
Milligan loves to sit under my desk while I work.
Bandit keeps an eye on me while I draw and waits for to take a break.
