Custom Cat Portrait

I recently put a reach out on Instagram for commissions, and was thankfully met with a request the same day by an old friend wanting to create a pet portrait for her partner’s upcoming birthday! She wanted to capture their two incredibly loved cats in amongst pinks and oranges, to match the theme they were going for in one corner of the house.

I’m really happy with how the end product came out and I know the customer was happy too as she shared load of positive feedback and I got these beautiful photos of it displayed in their home!

Unpublished perspectives!

Sharing an old simple POV illustration capturing the more luxury film experience that Everyman Cinema’s has to offer. Kicking your feet up in fancy boots to watch a film accompanied with an iced grapefruit cocktail, and bowl of green olives, how sophisticated!

I absolutely love creating personal perspective illustrations. I like to make the audience feel like they’re at the scene, translating my ideas to their brain. I feel capturing perspectives in this way creates an immersive, and therefore more engaging image, and at this point it feels like an integral part of my illustrative style! This style can particularly be seen in my recent travelling project, along with the illustrations that I did for Elle Decoration Magazine over the years!

This illustration was drawn for a project that I received from my previous art agent back in 2021 that never got published. Unfortunately my experience as a whole with this illustration agency was disappointing, landing me next to zero work in 3 years of representation… despite this, I’m optimistic that alternative representation could be beneficial for me, so I’m on the lookout for a new representative! I have to stick to the terms of my original agreement and am still within the ‘cooling off’ period so unable to join with a new agent, but I am however looking at potential options, so please drop me a line if you’re an agency looking for more artists, or alternatively if you’re an illustrator who’s been really happy with your agent, send me some recommendations of agencies to apply to!

Billy & Molly: An Otter Love Story

After recently watching the National Geographic documentary Billy & Molly : An Otter Love Story, a breathtakingly beautiful documentary, brimming with wonder, curiosity and joy, exploring a unique relationship set in the remote Shetland Islands, I was super inspired, so I just had to create an illustration capturing my favourite moment from the film where Molly, the otter, swims and plays in a tub full of rainbow coloured ball pit balls!

This illustration was not commissioned, but tied in perfectly with a gift opportunity for a talented friend who did some of the sound design on the film and just had a rainbow baby, coincidently also named Molly! That being said, working for clients such as National Geographic on animal, nature, or human geography, documentary topics would be an absolute dream!

Toward Health Business Card Design

Over the past few months, I’ve silently been working away on a business card design for south Bristol based holistic health service, Toward Health, and I’m really please to say the final design has officially gone off for printing! I’m yet to see the cards in print, but a mockup design will do for now!

Normally I’d run away at the initial request of a business card design, as I hate logos and typography, however thankfully this client already had their brand visuals established and just wanted a vibrant and eye-catching background design for their business cards that tied everything together, and I was very happy to help, particularly as it was birds and botanics focused!
