About Me

I am a graduate of BA Honours Illustration. My work mostly covers narrative for all ages, from sequential to children’s books, as well as posters and advertising. I am a highly self motivated and independent worker and enjoy building on skills and developing ideas on my own or as part of a team.

I specialise in puppet making and prop building, which I use as the focal point of my illustration. I use a variety of materials from clay and latex to textiles and found materials. I am constantly adding to my skills. My main interest is storytelling and a love of narrative and character design and I try to incorporate these themes wherever it is possibly and appropriate.

I also supply four shops across the West Midlands with various handmade goods that I also dispatch from two online shops. This has given me a chance to design and produce my own branding packaging solutions for many different products. I have sold work both in the UK and in the United States.
I am PC literate with Mac skills, and am able to use Adobe Photoshop and am currently learning to use Adobe Illustrator.

Areas covered: West Midlands

Work Experience

Aside my job as a barista, I continue to add to my portfolio with new work and projects, as well as running two online shops, and supplying four outlets around the West Midlands with handmade goods. My work has sold in the UK, USA and Canada.

The handmade goods I create are usually always illustration based, using original desgins on stationary and jewellery all of which I make and distribute myself, including packaging and labeling, all of which can be seen in my portfolio.
