My name is Fay and I'm an illustrator living in Aotearoa, creating playful visuals that bring stories to life. I have a love for emotive visual storytelling, and I'm inspired by adventures in nature, what makes us human and shining a light on mindfulness mental health and wellbeing. With 6 years of experience, my artwork has found home across editorial, advertising, packaging, animation, mural, and publishing projects. Combining rich textures, bold colours, and senses of scale, I create whimsical and engaging imagery that bring feelings and atmospheres to life. Previously I have worked with clients including Vans, BBC, Winston’s Wish, The Independent, The National Trust, Flow Magazine, Morrisons, Beer 52 and The Radio Times.
