So nice to know someone reads the about page! Welcome!
I grew up in a small town called Sandwich in Kent, England (It's where sandwiches got their name from. No really!) and now live by the sea near Margate.
I graduated from Kingston School of Art with a BA Hons Degree in Illustration Animation and have been working in illustration for over 8 years.
I want to promote positivity and be inclusive in my work. I can't make a big difference but I can make someone smile by looking at my work and that's not a power I take lightly!
My favourite illustrations are the kind that's unashamedly full of joy and colour. I love using nostalgia and warmth in my work to connect to each person looking at it.

I would eat a saturated colour palette for breakfast.
