Hi, I’m Berrie! I’m a graphic designer and illustrator originally from the UK, now based in Austin, Texas. I studied Art and Design at Stratford-upon-Avon College, where I had the chance to explore a wide range of styles, techniques, and creative ideas that still inspire my work today. My style is a blend of playful and thoughtful, and I’m always looking for new ways to use colour, layout, and illustration to tell a story. I work across graphic design, brand identity, and illustration helping small businesses, creative projects, and independent brands develop visuals that feel unique and full of personality. Whether it’s a full brand package, a poster, or a single illustrated asset, I love building work that stands out. Moving to Austin has been a huge creative boost. The energy, community, and culture here continue to inspire me every day. I’m always excited to connect with other designers, makers, and small brands!
