About me
I started working as a professional illustrator in 2020 after a background studying fine art. Since then, I have gone on to bring dozens of projects to life, including the best-selling, award winning, 'Little Wandle Letters and Sounds' program, (Harper Collins) used in over 5000 schools in the UK. Other notable projects include the 'Jesus Moments' series published by The Good Book Company, murals installed in Dorset County Hospital's A&E unit, and over 20 privately and traditionally published children's books. I have also completed numerous one-off commissions, including portraits, merchandise, packaging, pattern design, CD covers, NFT collections, and DnD characters.
I also exhibit paintings and prints as a fine artist. Exhibitions include: David Shepherd Wildlife Artist of the Year (2021, 2022); The Gugg, (2022) Athelhampton House, (2023, solo show); Dorset Arts weeks, (2019, 2021, 2022) various group shows at Sculpture by the lakes (2022, 2023, 2024); and Tye Mill Gallery (2024). I was selected as the ‘Emerging Artist' for Dorset Arts weeks in 2022, which included an article in the Dorset Visual Arts magazine.
I am an effective communicator and enjoy teaching. Previous workshops I have run include: anatomy and gesture for figure drawing, plein air and on-location sketching trips, and printmaking workshops with Dorset Arts Weeks.
